Amazon offers four more free games for Prime Day, including Marvel's Midnight Suns
The 2025 edition of Prime Day is upon us and, as expected, Amazon is offering Prime members an extra batch of games at no additional cost. Four more PC titles are now available to Prime Gaming subscribers, namely Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Marvel's Midnight Suns and Football Manager 2024. All of these are redeemable via the Epic Games Store save for Dark Forces II, which you can snag via GOG. The highly acclaimed Dark Forces II carries on the story of Kyle Katarn, a young mercenary who has infiltrated the Empire and learns he has a connection to the Force. Amnesia: The Dark Descent is a first-person survival horror title from 2010. Critics praised its novel 'sanity" gameplay feature, smart writing and immersive nature, and it is regarded as one of the most influential games in its genre. Marvel's Midnight Suns is a much more recent game. This is a 2022 turn-based tactical RPG from Firaxis, which is also known for the Civilization and XCOM series. Although the game struggled commercially, it was broadly critically acclaimed. As for Football Manager 2024 , that remains the most recent entry in the long-running (and time-absorbing) soccer management sim series. Sports Interactive cancelled the 2025 edition in February after months of delays due to development issues. The next instalment should arrive later this year, including the major technical and visual upgrades that were promised for FM25 . In the meantime, you can scoop up the previous edition for zilch if you're a Prime member. However, you'll only have until 11:59PM PT on July 11 to do so. The other three titles will remain in the Prime Gaming lineup for the rest of the month. Along with these freebies, Amazon is offering various discounts on the Luna Controller during Prime Day in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden and Belgium. In the US, Amazon has slashed the price of the Luna Controller by 43 percent to $40. A bundle that includes one month of Luna+ access is the same price (also 43 percent off). Meanwhile, a bundle of the controller and the Fire TV Stick 4K will currently run you $60 , which is half off. Remember that you'll need to be a Prime member to take advantage of these deals.
