Free gift cards to the Microsoft Store have been awarded to some Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S users by Microsoft. Unfortunately, there are no free gift cards for Xbox One users. Meanwhile, similar giveaways in the past have been random, and there have been no requirements to meet. This is the majority of cases when Microsoft sends out free gift cards, but it’s not the case this time. This is a precise and select giveaway, and one where a specific requirement needs to be met.

Any Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S user who pre-ordered the premium or premium upgrade for Forza Horizon 6 is getting a free $5 gift card sent to them by Xbox. It’s currently unclear if the giveaway is complete or if Microsoft still needs to send more codes out, but Xbox users have already started to report receiving the free gift cards.
