Originally revealed in 2020 and made available to a select group of people, Amazon Luna officially launched on March 1, 2022, in the United States, before expanding to the UK, Canada, and Germany. A cloud-based service, Amazon Luna offers subscribers an opportunity to stream a curated selection of games, with its library being divided into a few channels that each come with a unique monthly price.
Besides the channels, Amazon Luna also grants Prime subscribers access to a handful of free games per month; at the moment, four titles are usually the standard, although some temporary surprises might be included. Since Amazon Luna requires a stable internet connection to work, with 10 Mbps being the recommended speed, Prime owners can test the service using these titles before looking into the platform's channels. It also helps that Amazon Luna's free games for Prime lineup are generally pretty good.
These Amazon Luna's Free Games with Prime will be available between June 1–30, 2024.
Metro Exodus
Metascore: 82
Comfortably the biggest Amazon Luna Free with Prime game of June 2024, Metro Exodus is the third entry in 4A's survival horror first-person shooter series. Stepping away from the underground corridors that made up the previous games, Metro Exodus focuses way more on exploring the surface, including the incorporation of two fairly expansive sections that act as mini-open-worlds.
Metro Exodus: 7 Things You Didn't Know You Could Do
There are a lot of hidden secrets, easter eggs, and places to visit in the world of Metro Exodus that every player should make sure to see.
While these changes did not hit the mark with every long-time fan, the sequel still mostly feels the same as Last Light, offering slow and methodical gunplay with hints of stealth and horror. Metro Exodus is a solid test of Amazon Luna's capabilities as it does occasionally require quick and precise inputs.
Bee Simulator
Metascore: 84
Bee Simulator
- Released
- November 12, 2019
- Developer
- Varsav Game Studios
- Genre(s)
- Simulation
- How Long To Beat
- 3 Hours
Bee Simulator is for anyone who has always wanted to see the world from an insect's point of view, all the while going through a quick and decent story about survival in a human-infested climate. Other than that, there is not too much to say about this indie game since both the gameplay and mission structure are limited, offering little excitement beyond their unique perspective. Still, as a kids' game that can be completed within a single sitting, Bee Simulator gets the job done.
Overcooked!
Metascore: 81
Overcooked
- Released
- August 2, 2016
- Developer(s)
- Ghost Town Games
- Genre(s)
- Simulation
- How Long To Beat
- 8 Hours
Alongside its sequel, Overcooked! is well-established as one of the most entertaining co-op party games of the last decade. The premise is simple: cook, cook, and cook some more. Whether alone or with a couple of friends, players need to maintain a restaurant's output, keeping everything movie while orders come in at an increasingly frenzied pace.
Amazon Luna: How To Use Luna Couch To Play Local Co-Op Games
With Luna Couch, Amazon Luna subscribers do not need to be in the same building to play local co-op games. Here is how to set up a session.
While funny and charming, Overcooked! also does a shockingly good job of capturing the hectic atmosphere of professional kitchens, paving the way to plenty of potentially frustrating moments.
Inertial Drift Twilight Rivals Edition
Metascore: 89 (Vanilla Version)
Inertial Drift
- Released
- September 11, 2020
- Developer(s)
- Level 91 Entertainment
- Genre(s)
- Racing
- How Long To Beat
- 5 Hours
Racing games serve as good barometers to measure a streaming service's potential since they can be rendered unplayable with even a little bit of input lag. Inertial Drift is no exception, and it will not only test Amazon Luna's power but also most players' concentration.
An arcade racer that, naturally, focuses on drifting, this indie release mostly revolves around time trials, with players having to make their way through well-designed courses filled with winding and cinematic roads. The gameplay is fast, accessible, and challenging enough.
Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition
Metascore: 84
Fallout: New Vegas
- Released
- October 19, 2010
- Developer(s)
- Obsidian Entertainment
- Genre(s)
- RPG
- How Long To Beat
- 28 Hours
Amazon Luna with Prime Gaming is having something of a Fallout celebration, which makes sense following the success of Amazon Prime Video's TV series adaptation of Bethesda's franchise. Fallout: New Vegas is generally regarded as the high point of the 3D era, at least when it comes to pure role-playing. Obsidian crafted a player-driven campaign that provides plenty of freedom in crafting the Courier's identity and directing his journey through the eponymous city.
Amazon Luna: How Many Games Are Included?
How many games does the cloud gaming platform have? What about each Amazon Luna channel?
Now, New Vegas is quite old by this point, and it was always rather rough around the edges. On PC, the game has a lively modding community that has not only kept it alive but also improved the vanilla content; unfortunately, mods are not an option on Amazon Luna. Still, if someone wants to try out the base version, this freebie should be great.
Fallout 3: Game Of The Year Edition
Metascore: 91
Fallout 3
- Released
- October 28, 2008
- Developer(s)
- Bethesda Game Studios
- Genre(s)
- Action RPG
- How Long To Beat
- 23 Hours
Considering its accessibility and longevity, Fallout 3 has likely been experienced by anyone who has ever been remotely interested in it. Nevertheless, the 2008 RPG will always be a big deal in its own right, and it is still fun to play all these years later. At the time, Bethesda's shift to a 3D sandbox open-world marked a significant departure from previous Fallout entries, and this decision helped propel the series to new commercial heights.
Nowadays, the standard version of Fallout 3 is antiquated in quite a few areas. The gameplay was never particularly good and has not gotten better with age. While not quite as action-driven as Fallout 4, the 2008 release does not emphasize player choices as much as New Vegas or the series' isometric releases; however, Fallout 3 still offers solid customization and an awesome playground.
Trackmania Starter Access
Metascore: 74
Ubisoft's most recent Trackmania project has been around for a couple of years, although it only launched on most platforms in 2023. Unlike most racing games, Trackmania prioritizes time trials and short tracks, with most laps lasting only a small handful of minutes. Although incorporating an online aspect, players will also be competing against themselves as they try to shave a second or two from their best times.
The Best Street Racing Games of All Time, Ranked
Street racing games let players enjoy an adrenaline-pumping thrill from the comfort of their homes.
Trackmania is a free-to-play game that only provides a sample of content in its base version. The Starter Access iteration is a bit more robust and should keep people engaged for a while.
Fortnite is also part of Amazon Luna's free games with Prime, along with its spin-off modes like Lego Fortnite , Rocket Racing , and Fortnite Festival .
