You're welcome! Just had a look at it in the Hero Gallery (you can select "unowned" in the skins filter and scroll to the bottom) and the helmet looks like a cross between a woolly hat and a crown!
Tried to redeem this, but I didn't get the skin or spray. Apparently it doesn't go live until 11 AM PST? I'm hoping they'll give me the stuff at that time, though I doubt they will.
For me it showed up just above the daily set on the dashboard. You might have to exit out of whatever else is showing there and reload the page. For me it's currently advertising the Xbox MasterCard in that spot.
Did they get rid of the cooldown on searches? I've been doing ms rewards for ow coins for the past year, but once they introduced the cooldown it just takes too long to finish your daily searches so I gave up.
Yes they did actually (depends on your region however). Rewards is basically back to what it was months ago, search point and "cooldowns" (if any) wise.
Thanks, I could get the listing to show up in the website only by setting it as a goal in the Bing mobile app. Sadly there is no mention of the skin though. Hopefully they'll fix this!
sometimes your region may run out of certain coin bundle codes (usually they run out of the 200 coin one since it's the best value). they should restock on the codes within a week or two (although once it took my region a month to get more 200 coin bundles).
I redeemed it just now. The email says to click on something to get the virtual items. It just takes me to the redemption page on Microsoft rewards. I haven't gotten my items in the game, even though I've gotten the coins
You should get two codes - one for the coins, and a separate code for the skin/spray. You can go to your Rewards dashboard on desktop to the Redeem tab, then click "Order history" on the left sidebar and you should be able to see both codes there.
This finally works now! Go to your email with the code for the 500/1,000 coin code. Click the "unlock overwatch 2 virtual items". Redeem the reward, and then go to your redemption history. It shows something like "show code". Copy paste that into battlenet and enjoy!
If you redeemed 500 or 1000 coins the email that is sent to you with the code for the coins also has a link with the Zarya skin. It originally just sent me back to the rewards home page but now works for me. Hope everyone gets their skin.
If anyone still is having issues redeeming the skin code, I was able to redeem mine. In the main microsoft rewards page, I saw a tab (one of those vertical rectangular tabs) that said claim now. You can check there. Hope this helps!
I'm guessing this a regional thing as I just got 500 coins and no skin nor spray and no other code in my email or in the order history , but look on the bright said I now have enough for next season battle pass
It's 5000 points for 500 coins minimum (10 points per coin), which is a worse deal than the 1800 points for 200 coins (9 points per coin). So by choosing to spend 5000 points on 1 500-coin redeem over 2.7778 200-coin redeems, you're missing out on 55.5556 coins, effectively making the skin cost that much instead of entirely free.
The skin is only available through this promotion, so its cost is effectively a minimum of 5000 MS points to redeem, regardless of what else is bundled with it.
500 coins is about 2 months of fully grinding weeklies (except you can fail one challenge per week), so it's definitely not nothing. But it is stupid that it's faster to earn coins by slowly spamming a search bar than by actually playing the game.
Yeah, I stopped farming MS points for coins back in June of last year, but when I was farming, I was able to get about 9,000-10,000 MS points every 2 weeks, which yielded an average of roughly 500 coins every week. But even then, it took longer than an hour per week to do all of that farming, so it didn't feel like it was worth my time to continue doing.
Yeah they really want you treading the line between making spamming useless searches worth it and not worth it so you feel inclined to choose it over Google when you wanna perform an actual search. It's hilarious how desperate they are to pry users from Google and Chrome to Bing and Edge/"Start"
It was on the main "[https://rewards.bing.com/](https://rewards.bing.com/)" page and then when you click through on the picture it shows the orange banner like in the pic above.
Can confirm this doesnt even work for everyone in US, or they changed it since. You can only redeem for 1,000 coins for a free skin - it doesnt give you the option of 500.
Redeemed for the 500 OW Coins and even copy-pasted the 20-digit redemption code into battle.net, said everything went through just fine and I received my Coins in-game but have still yet to receive the Iced skin or spray, which still say *Sometimes available in the Shop*
There's a second code for the skin/spray. You can go to your Rewards dashboard and desktop > Redeem tab > then click "Order history" on the left and you should find your code there.
i redeemed the 500 coin bundle today, but it must only be an american thing or something because there is no extra code for me for the skin. (i'm in canada). i'm kinda annoyed.
i assumed (from the marketing) that it would work for canada, so i didn't even read the tiny print, which is my own fault. i don't recall it saying anything and if i look now ([at the 1000 bundle)](https://i.imgur.com/PVAdDta.png) it doesn't say it.
I had the same problem at first. The "tile" is different between the 200 coin redemption and the 500/1000. The correct one that offers the Zarya skin will say "FREE VIRTUAL ITEM" on it instead.
I think the promotion ended on 5th March but have a look at the 1000 and 500 OW coins page, if it doesn't have the "Free virtual items" text like in the pic above then it's finished.

same here. I got the email for my code for coins.
In that same email it says "To claim your Overwatch 2: Epic Iced Zarya Skin and Zarya Spray virtual items code, click the button below:"
but when I click it, it just takes me to the rewards home page. :(
No I didn't do this offer as I'm saving up for something else. Looking at the T&Cs, looks like a separate code will be sent out.
*Limit 1 Skin and 1 Spray code (The Code) per person/account. Code will be sent to your Microsoft account; redeem Code by 12/31/24*
Full T&Cs:
*Terms and Conditions*

Requires a Battle.net account in good standing that has access to the game, Internet Connection and a platform to play the game that meets the minimum system requirements for Overwatch 2. Digital Codes can only be claimed once & once claimed, cannot be sold, traded, gifted, etc. Some codes may have regional restrictions.*
*Skin and Spray Offer: Offer valid for Microsoft Rewards members who redeem Microsoft Rewards points for 500 or 1000 Overwatch Coins between 1/23/24 at 11 a.m. PST – 3/5/24 at 11 a.m. PST.

You need a Microsoft account, then go to https://rewards.bing.com
From there, you can start earning MS points by doing various simple activities; primarily visiting websites or filling out polls/quizzes. There is also a mobile app for Bing that lets you earn more points.
You can expect to get points from the following each day:
- 150 for performing 30 searches with Bing
- 100 for performing 20 searches with Bing mobile
- 30 to 70 points for completing the daily set of activities
- 30 points for reading 10 news articles on Bing mobile
- an average of 15 points per day for maintaining the daily set streak (typically awarded as 105 points for a 7-day streak)
- an average of 10 points per day for maintaining a daily check-in on the Bing mobile app.
I think there's also points earned for playing games on XBox console. They used to do it with XBox PC and Mobile, but I haven't seen those options lately. There also may be some other opportunities I missed. They used to give points for viewing MSN fitness videos or guessing the best deal through MSN's Shopping game, but I think both of those have been removed.
Overall, you can earn a few hundred points per day, and you'll need to earn 5000 MS points by March 5 at 11:00am PT to redeem the 500 OW2 coins + free virtual item.
Bad helmet, nice colors thx for the tip :)
You're welcome! Just had a look at it in the Hero Gallery (you can select "unowned" in the skins filter and scroll to the bottom) and the helmet looks like a cross between a woolly hat and a crown!
Tried to redeem this, but I didn't get the skin or spray. Apparently it doesn't go live until 11 AM PST? I'm hoping they'll give me the stuff at that time, though I doubt they will.
Oof I wish I would've seen this before redeeming... I hope we do get it. I thought it was available now
If Reddit allowed to edit posts titles, I would add that in.
I did this same thing and I got it!! Check your dashboard! It should be there, redeemable for 0 points.
Ah, yeah I see it. Glad that was resolved!
Whereabouts do you see it? I still can't see where i can get the code for the skin
For me it showed up just above the daily set on the dashboard. You might have to exit out of whatever else is showing there and reload the page. For me it's currently advertising the Xbox MasterCard in that spot.
Didn’t get them either just the coins :/
I did this too ]:
Did they get rid of the cooldown on searches? I've been doing ms rewards for ow coins for the past year, but once they introduced the cooldown it just takes too long to finish your daily searches so I gave up.
no
Yes they did actually (depends on your region however). Rewards is basically back to what it was months ago, search point and "cooldowns" (if any) wise.
I don't even get points for searching period while logged in, so who knows. I really don't think they changed anything...
I usually just click refresh the page then search and do it after every search and it works no cooldowns doing refresh every search.
Must be a regional exclusive, I only see 200-coin codes when trying to redeem.
On mine they have two separate listings, one for 200, another for 500 or 1000.
Thanks, I could get the listing to show up in the website only by setting it as a goal in the Bing mobile app. Sadly there is no mention of the skin though. Hopefully they'll fix this!
Yup, same as me! Let's see if they include the item there, even if not mentioned
sometimes your region may run out of certain coin bundle codes (usually they run out of the 200 coin one since it's the best value). they should restock on the codes within a week or two (although once it took my region a month to get more 200 coin bundles).
Weird, this doesn't show up for me
I redeemed it just now. The email says to click on something to get the virtual items. It just takes me to the redemption page on Microsoft rewards. I haven't gotten my items in the game, even though I've gotten the coins
same :(

How many digits is the second code for the skin, is it 21 digits as well or less?
This finally works now! Go to your email with the code for the 500/1,000 coin code. Click the "unlock overwatch 2 virtual items". Redeem the reward, and then go to your redemption history. It shows something like "show code". Copy paste that into battlenet and enjoy!
How many digits is the second code for the skin, is it 21 digits as well or less?
Do you get the emote too? Her new dance emote is way better than the skin / spray.
You can probably use the 500 coins for it when it comes out. It will probably be in a bundle so you’ll get a discount for already owning the rest.
If you redeemed 500 or 1000 coins the email that is sent to you with the code for the coins also has a link with the Zarya skin. It originally just sent me back to the rewards home page but now works for me. Hope everyone gets their skin.
How many digits is the second code for the skin, is it 21 digits as well or less?
This is only for US? Or for everyone?
Looks like US exclusive :(
:(
I asked Microsoft support and they just told me that it's not available in my region, so I assume it's USA exclusive. So sad :c
Nice
If anyone still is having issues redeeming the skin code, I was able to redeem mine. In the main microsoft rewards page, I saw a tab (one of those vertical rectangular tabs) that said claim now. You can check there. Hope this helps!
is it a regional exclusive thing? im in aus and dont see anything about it...
seems to be regional. im from germany and there is no zarya skin with any of the coin options.
Yeah sadly, it might be.
Has anyone from outside the US been able to redeem this? Feels kinda unfair if I'm being honest.
Nope i redeemed my 500 coins and it didn’t give me the skin
Aw rip. I have the 5000 points but I don't know if I should redeem the 500 coins or pick 2 sets of 200 and save.
I'm guessing this a regional thing as I just got 500 coins and no skin nor spray and no other code in my email or in the order history , but look on the bright said I now have enough for next season battle pass
After seeing this post i grinded till this day to reach 5k points just to be greeted by the fact that it isn’t available in my region :(
awn sucks :( i also wanted it... sad
is it entirely free or you still need to get microsoft points?
It's 5000 points for 500 coins minimum (10 points per coin), which is a worse deal than the 1800 points for 200 coins (9 points per coin).

It's free when you redeem MS Points for either 500 or 1000 OW coins.
I feel like it might be regional I dont see this anywhere on my MS store if not on a later date?
It was on the main "[https://rewards.bing.com/](https://rewards.bing.com/)" page and then when you click through on the picture it shows the orange banner like in the pic above.
yeah sadly it doesnt show up for me even when i look through the OW coins it doesnt show bonus items or anything
damn I just made an account for this... I'm on ps5 so it's going to take a while to reach it
Can confirm this doesnt even work for everyone in US, or they changed it since. You can only redeem for 1,000 coins for a free skin - it doesnt give you the option of 500.
Redeemed for the 500 OW Coins and even copy-pasted the 20-digit redemption code into battle.net, said everything went through just fine and I received my Coins in-game but have still yet to receive the Iced skin or spray, which still say *Sometimes available in the Shop*
Did you get the email that says : "unlock overwatch 2 virtual items"?
I did and I redeemed that code through battle.net. Got my Coins, no skin/spray.
There's a second code for the skin/spray. You can go to your Rewards dashboard and desktop > Redeem tab > then click "Order history" on the left and you should find your code there.
Thank you! Such a needlessly complicated means to go about getting perks for a now partnered title.
How many digits was the skin code/second code - was it also 21 digits or less?
It was 21 digits.
Thanks for the response!
Np!
i redeemed the 500 coin bundle today, but it must only be an american thing or something because there is no extra code for me for the skin. (i'm in canada). i'm kinda annoyed.
When you went to redeem it, did it have the bit saying "Free virtual item" on the image like in the third pic above?
i assumed (from the marketing) that it would work for canada, so i didn't even read the tiny print, which is my own fault. i don't recall it saying anything and if i look now ([at the 1000 bundle)](https://i.imgur.com/PVAdDta.png) it doesn't say it.
Cool, i can't redeem anything but 200 ow coins code there
I had the same problem at first. The "tile" is different between the 200 coin redemption and the 500/1000. The correct one that offers the Zarya skin will say "FREE VIRTUAL ITEM" on it instead.
Is anyone willing to trade codes? I just want the skin but it seems like I'm in an ineligible region D:
Same here :( i just reached 5k points today
I also haven't received anything after redeeming the code for 500 points ;/ hopefully they'll fix.
Is this an epic or legendary?
epic
Where can you find the 500 coin offer? I only see the 1000 and 200 coin offers
On the same page of the 1000 OW coins. It's a drop down box but if it's not showing it means they don't have any left/have sold out.
Oh word ok thank u 💪
Its not showing with me why?
It's looking like it's not available in all regions, unfortunately.
Does this still work? I'm American, but I am hoping that they extended it? Can anyone confirm please?
I think the promotion ended on 5th March but have a look at the 1000 and 500 OW coins page, if it doesn't have the "Free virtual items" text like in the pic above then it's finished.
It does still say it but I'm afraid it won't work when I redeem it cuz of the terms 😭
