Xbox Live Rewards pilot staying private
Microsoft has said that the Xbox Live Rewards scheme will remain private for now.

The project, open to selected North American users, gives out Microsoft Points for those that renew subscriptions and actively purchase content from the Marketplace.

"The Xbox Live Rewards website is part of a pilot programme we're testing with a small group from our global Xbox Live community," the company told Eurogamer.

"We are always exploring new ways to provide the most value to our members, but have nothing to announce about a public programme at this time."

Offers will include repaying 5% of all Marketplace spending per month and adding 200 Microsoft Points (£1.35) for renewing a 12-month Gold subscription.

The programme is expected to last until early next year.
