Twitch offering monthly free games to Prime subscribers

Amazon continues to add value Prime subscribers with Twitch accounts. On top of free subscriptions to their favourite Twitch streamers and exclusive DLC for a wide variety of games, Twitch users with a Prime account will now receive a set of free games every month. This service, which is similar to PlayStation Plus’ Monthly Games offerings, will give players ten free games over the first two months.

So far these are a mixture of smaller titles from Amazon’s Indie Amplifier program, with a sprinkling of heavy hitters and must-plays like Superhot and Tales From The Borderlands. Unlike with PlayStation Plus, players will keep these games forever, even after their Prime subscription expires. This adds a huge amount of value to something that a lot of Twitch users probably already have.

The full list of games available in Twitch’s Free Games With Prime service for the first two months are as follows:

March (from the 15th)

• Superhot
• Shadow Tactics
• Tales from Candlekeep
• Oxenfree
• Mr. Shifty

April (from the 1st – no joke!)

• Tales from the Borderlands
• SteamWorld Dig 2
• Kingsway
• Tokyo 42
• Dubwars
