In the wild, wondrous world of gaming, Amazon has graced the realm with its latest free game offerings. Yes, the subscription service, previously known as Prime Gaming, has rebranded itself to part of the illustrious Luna lineup. That’s right, it’s got a new name, and for no extra charge (well, as long as the Prime subscription is maintained), players can still snag complimentary games every month!
This time ’round, the freebie lineup boasts titles like Lego 2K Drive, Bo: Path of the Teal Lotus, and the ever-so-intriguing Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. Nothing says “happy gaming” like a Lego-themed driving experience mixed with a side of existential angst from a cyberpunk classic.
The Perks of Having a Prime Subscription
Now, for those who aren’t in the know, Amazon’s offer is a generous one. Unlike other services that only lend access to games like a stingy friend during movie night, Amazon hands out redeemable codes that allow players to own these games outright. Forever and ever, amen. So, even if the Prime subscription goes kaput, the games will remain in the digital library. Talk about commitment issues!
For a smorgasbord of gaming goodness, here’s the complete lineup of December’s free offerings, detailed with a casualness that suggests players should definitely take notes:

But Wait, There’s More!
For the Prime members who thrive on the thrill of clouds (no, not the fluffy kind), a rotating selection of games is available on Luna. Freshly minted titles such as Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, Fallout 4: Game of the Year Edition, and Mafia: Definitive Edition are now hosted in the cloud where the game gods watch over the digital confetti rains down.
For those who cling to nostalgia or perhaps missed November’s freebies, some remnants still linger. Titles like Fallout 76, New Tales from the Borderlands, and PlateUp can still be claimed, provided the urge to rediscover missed treasures is strong enough.
In a dizzying twist of fate, Amazon has revamped its Luna streaming service, adding a delightful feature called GameNight. Picture this: about 30 party games tailored for the casual gamers among us, with nothing needed besides a phone to join the fun. No app download is required, just a sense of humor and the occasional snack. Who doesn’t love snacking while gaming?
