Amazon's Prime membership offers several incentives such as free music, movies, and TV series in addition to exclusive lightning deals on several ranges of products with the fastest possible delivery promise on its e-commerce app.

Now, the company is offering another valuable gaming service to Prime members. With this, users get access to popular titles such as Activision's Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 and Modern Warfare 2. There is also League of Legends, DeathLoop, Quake, Electronics Arts' Madden 23, FIFA 23, Apex Legends, Destiny 2, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, and more.

Users can play the aforementioned games on Android phones, and computers (Windows and Macs) via Amazon Prime Gaming platforms. Also, those with existing accounts with gaming titles can link their user IDs to Amazon Prime Gaming accounts to get bonus features and other incentives. Amazon Gaming will be available on the iOS platform in January 2023.

“With the rebranded launch of Prime Gaming, we continue to make Amazon Prime more valuable for members in India. Gaming has become widely popular, and we recognize the need to provide a robust selection of games and content to enhance playing experience of our Prime members. The new and refreshed Prime Gaming, comes with a great accessibility to the latest games and we will continue to add new in-game content for other popular games, with frequent content refreshes,” said Akshay Sahi - Director, Prime and Delivery Experience, Amazon India

This is a great value addition to the Prime Membership, which costs Rs 1,499 per annum. Amazon also offers a quarterly plan for Rs 459 and a monthly for Rs 179, very economical compared to any rival OTT (Over-The-Top) brands such as Hotstar, SonyLiv, and others.

This makes it more compelling for people to renew their subscriptions and also enticing for others to join the Prime team.

Even Netflix has begun offering gaming titles, but the library has very few and does not have any popular AAA titles offered by Amazon.
