It went from approximately $235 to $250, which is about 6%. On calls, especially short-dated ones, that can easily be a 40-50% gain. I've got a number of different MSFT LEAPS in my portfolio and they all went up 15%+ on that news.

Relative to their peers though: Alphabet went up almost 8% the same day, clearly not due to Microsoft's VR contract.
