How To Link Xbox Account To Riot Account

Let's start a Riot (game).

Xbox Game Pass, and more often than not its Ultimate counterpart, love to give players plenty of perks in games alongside the swathe of free games coming to the service every month. Some of the perks you can gain as an Ultimate member include a Deluxe upgrade for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, charms in Apex Legends, an Apple TV+ subscription, and more! For regular members though, Riot Games is offering a ton of rewards for linking your Xbox account to a Riot account. That’s what seems to have some people tripped up. Here’s how to link your Xbox account to your Riot account.
