Lots of Xbox LIVE members change their gamertag every month. Sometimes it's done to reflect a change in occupation or location, and other times it's done to match their new Xbox LIVE avatar. Another reason a lot of people change their Gamertag is to support a website or join a clan.

Whatever the reason, if you've been considering a gamertag change, now is the time to do it. The Deal of the Week, which offers special discounts each week for Gold members, is featuring the gamertag name change for only 560 Microsoft Points, a 30% savings.

  • Go to My Xbox, and select your gamertag.
  • Select Change Gamertag.

  • Once you enter or select a new gamertag, select Yes, use this gamertag.
Some of our existing HQ gamertags are: HQ Ozzy, HQ Scarface, HQ M0NSTERB0Y, HQ S1MME, HQ Wes213, HQ Sjohn, HQ Utopia, HQ DOA666, HQ Hacker Girl and many more - Add yours now!

When you confirm your new gamertag, the change spreads across Xbox LIVE. You don’t need to tell your friends that you changed your gamertag—their friends list automatically updates.

If you are stuck deciding on your new Xbox LIVE gamertag why not add a HQ in the front of your name with a space, then you can join all of our other Xbox LIVE gamers and clan members right here on 360-HQ, and you'll fit right in!
