Amazon Prime Gaming is bringing a strong lineup of 20 free games to subscribers this March, featuring notable titles like Saints Row: The Third Remastered, Mafia II: Definitive Edition, and Wolfenstein: The Old Blood. The games will be released in batches throughout the month, giving players something new to look forward to each week.

Game Lineup and Release Schedule

The March lineup kicks off with four titles already available:

  • Saints Row: The Third Remastered (GOG Code)
  • Mafia II: Definitive Edition (GOG Code)
  • Crime Boss: Rockay City (Epic Games Store)
  • Naheulbeuk’s Dungeon Master (Amazon Games App)

Additional games will be released in three batches on March 13, March 20, and March 27. Highlights include Endling — Extinction is Forever, a BAFTA award-winning game where players control the last mother fox on Earth, and The Forgotten City, a narrative-driven time loop adventure set in ancient Rome.

Platform Accessibility

What makes Prime Gaming particularly useful is the variety of platforms where these games can be accessed. Games are distributed through different services including:

  • Amazon Games App
  • GOG
  • Epic Games Store
  • Microsoft Store
  • Legacy Games

This cross-platform approach allows subscribers to add these titles to their existing game libraries with minimal hassle.

Cloud Gaming with Amazon Luna

Beyond downloadable games, Prime members can also access select titles through Amazon Luna, the company’s cloud gaming service. Luna allows gaming without a console or high-end PC, as games are streamed directly to compatible devices including Fire TV.

The current Luna lineup includes:

  • WRC Generations Fully Loaded Edition
  • Overcooked! 2
  • Spitlings
  • The Jackbox Party Pack 3
  • Strange Horticulture

Additionally, Prime members can play all Fortnite variants and select Fallout titles through Luna. Amazon Luna is currently available in the US, UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Austria, the Netherlands, and Poland.

Prime Gaming Subscription Value

A major advantage of Prime Gaming is that claimed games remain in your library permanently, even if your subscription ends. Unlike some competing services, once you claim a title, it’s yours to keep.

Prime Gaming is included with Amazon Prime membership, making it an additional benefit alongside free shipping, Prime Video, and other services. Subscribers also receive in-game loot for popular titles and a monthly Twitch channel subscription.

Gaming Industry Context

Prime Gaming’s approach differs from competitors like Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus, which typically offer access to games only while subscribed. This permanent ownership model provides a different value proposition for players who prefer building a lasting game library.

The inclusion of cloud gaming through Luna follows the industry trend toward making gaming more accessible without expensive hardware requirements. As more services adopt cloud technology, the barrier to entry for gaming continues to lower.

Game Highlights

The March selection spans multiple genres and styles:

  • Open World Adventures: Saints Row: The Third Remastered brings its signature zaniness and over-the-top action, while Mafia II: Definitive Edition offers a grittier, story-driven crime saga set in 1940s-50s Empire Bay.
  • Unique Experiences: Endling — Extinction is Forever provides an emotional survival adventure, while The Forgotten City challenges players to solve mysteries in an ancient Roman setting using time manipulation.
  • Classic Revivals: Legacy of Kain: Defiance and Deus Ex: Invisible War represent beloved franchises from gaming history, offering newer players a chance to experience these influential titles.

Prime Gaming continues to enhance its value proposition through a mixture of recent indie darlings, remastered classics, and unique titles that might have flown under the radar for many gamers.
