Prime Day Freebies expire tonight! Grab these now before they're gone

There's only a handful of hours left of Prime Day, and that means all those lovely freebies go back to being... not free. The only thing any of them cost you is a Prime membership, and given you can get one of those for 30 days without paying a thing, these freebies really are a no brainer. And you've only got until midnight! That means time is running out to get 30 free games with Prime Gaming, or 3 months of Amazon Music Unlimited without having to pay a cent. I don't think I can understate how little time you have left before you miss out on all this free stuff — so go! Fill your hands with free Amazon stuff and run away into the wind. But not before you've checked out the rest of the Prime Day sale, obviously. Those are going away soon as well... So you're not going to get any of the below (or the Prime Day deals overall) without one of these. If you haven't already had a free trial, you get 30 days of Prime benefits without having to pay a cent — Prime TV, next-day delivery, and, of course, Amazon Prime Day deals. Grab this one today to make sure you get the very best Prime Day deals. This is one of the best freebies right now — that's around $40 worth of Amazon Music Unlimited subscription for nothing at all. You'll get full access to the Hi-res streaming service, as well as the spatial audio tracks that you can listen to with compatible devices. After the 3 months is up you'll be back to paying $11.99 per month. You've only got until midnight tonight to pick up a sub — so be quick! Get your summer reading list all sorted with a free Kindle Unlimited account. That gets you access to 4 million different books, ready to read on your Kindle app or your Kindled device. Once the trial is over, you'll have to pay $11.99 per month to keep it going. If you're a first-time user of Amazon Photos user, you can get some extra credit to go with your unlimited Prime Photos account. Upload some pics to the service, and you'll get a $15 credit to spend on some of those epic Prime Day deals. This deal leaves with the Prime Day sales — so you've only got a few hours left! As every year, there are loads of games fresh for the claiming at the Amazon Prime Gaming page. That's Football Manager 2024, Star Wars Jedi Knight Dark Forces II, Marvel's Midnight Suns, Amnesia the Dark Descent, Star Wars Rebellion, Saints Row Re-elected, Tomb Raider I,II,III remastered, TOEM, Saints Row II... the list goes on, and on. All of these games will be lost, like tears in the rain... unless you grab them before the end of the Prime Day sales. Want to get some money off your next Grubhub order? Link your Prime Account to your Grubhub account, and use the code PRIME50 to get 50% off your order. This deal ends midnight tonight — so get in there quick! While this isn't strictly free, it's still a massive discount on one of my personal favorite ways of listening to my favorite books. That's a saving of $14 per month overall, although you will be back up to the full monthly price when the three months is over. You get to keep all the Audiobooks you've grabbed with your credits at the end of your three months as well, which is a big bonus. There are plenty more deals to be had this Prime Day — make sure you check out our Prime Day live blog to make sure you're staying on top of all the latest sales and offers.

The best Marvel game you (probably) skipped is free for Prime Day — and it's not the only gaming freebie at Amazon right now

Prime Gaming is one of the best Amazon Prime benefits year-round, but the offerings have gone into overdrive for Prime Day 2025. Right now, you can score 29 free video games via the gaming hub, and that includes the fantastic, and overlooked, Marvel's Midnight Suns. If you're unaware of Prime Gaming, it's included with all Amazon Prime subscribers as standard and offers a rotating selection of completely free PC games. These aren't just little time-wasters or bargain bin picks either. We're talking about major blockbuster games from juggernaut franchises. There are currently 29 free games to choose from, but my pick of the bunch is definitely the brilliant and extremely content-rich Marvel's Midnight Suns. Marvel's Midnight Suns: FREE (w/ Prime) @ AmazonIn Marvel's Midnight Suns, you create your own hero, known as The Hunter, and then set out on a world-saving mission to defeat the fearsome Lilith. Mixing strategic turn-based battles that utilize a customizable deck-building system, with a superhero life sim, Midnight Suns is a unique blend that lets you fight alongside the biggest heroes in Marvel's roster, and then befriend them at your home base. It's a lengthy tactical RPG that Marvel fans won't want to miss. This 2022 superhero title from developer Firaxis mashes together a tactical battle system with surprisingly gripping life-sim elements, letting you team up with some of Marvel's most iconic heroes by day, and then befriend them at your home base in the evening. Because who doesn't want to go fishing with Captain America or play chess against Iron Man and Doctor Strange? In our Marvel's Midnight Suns review, we praised the game for delivering 'satisfying strategic battles, as well as a full-fledged superhero social sim.' Plus, it's jam-packed with Marvel heroes from Wolverine and Spider-Man to Scarlet Witch and Ghost Rider. The cast is expanded further via optional DLC to include fan-favorites like Deadpool, Venom, and the X-Men's Storm. Unfortunately, despite its high-quality and well-conceived mixture of strategic turn-based battles and Persona-like social sim elements, not to mention its meaty length (even a rushed playthrough will take you around 50 hours), the game was a sales disappointment. So, if you skipped it at launch, don't miss your chance to correct that error for free via Amazon Prime Gaming. Not a Marvel fan or already played Midnight Suns? That's no problem, Midnight Suns is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Prime Gaming freebies. Right now, you can also pick up free copies of Football Manager 2024, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Saints Row IV: Re-Elected and Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Starring Lara Croft. Amazon Prime: for $139/yearAmazon Prime gives shoppers access to a whole host of benefits, Prime Gaming among them. Also included is free shipping on over 100 million products, plus access to additional services like Prime Video and Prime Music. You can pay an annual $139 fee or choose a monthly plan at $14.99. And these are just some of the 29 PC games currently available for free on Prime Gaming. To claim any (or all of them), head over to the Prime Gaming hub, and then click the 'claim game' button on the title(s) you want, follow the simple on-screen instructions and you'll be playing your free game in no time. Plus, each title is yours to keep even if your Prime subscription expires. Prime Day 2025 is offering a host of excellent gaming deals across PlayStation, Nintendo and Xbox, and while deep discounts are pretty unmissable, it's hard to beat free games. Especially when the free games are of the caliber of Marvel's Midnight Suns. So, even if you're planning to keep your wallet locked down over Prime Day, don't miss these epic gaming freebies on Amazon.

Prime members can claim hit football game worth £45 for FREE in latest mega giveaway – there's only days left to claim

AMAZON Prime members can get their hands on a popular game worth £45 at absolutely no cost. Prime Day is upon us which means shoppers can snap up some mega deals. This year, the event has been extended to four days, running from July 8 till July 11. This is the longest time the sales event has run for, initially launching in 2015 as a 24-hour event and later being extended to two days long. It gives shoppers more time to find the best bargains across beauty, tech and homeware sections. PRIME DAY FREEBIE Amazon is also treating Prime members to some freebies which they can keep forever. Gamers can now claim Football Manager 2024 for free via Prime Gaming. The best part is that you get to keep the game forever regardless of your Prime membership. The simulation game allows you step into the shoes of a football boss as you assemble and manage the world's best team. You can choose from 2,500 clubs to build your dream team in pursuit of football's biggest prizes. But be quick as the offer lasts only until Friday. The offer is only available to Prime members, so you'll need to sign up to access it. If you have never joined Prime before, you can make the most of the 30-day free trial. Remember to cancel before your trial ends though or you'll be charged £8.99 a month for your membership. AMAZON PRIME SHOPPING TIPS Amazon runs two Prime Day events a year, one in July and one in October. The event can be exciting for shoppers, but it is important not to get carried away and make impulse purchases which aren't good value. The Sun previously spoke to Liz Hunter, commercial director at price comparison website Money Expert, who said shoppers should be wary of unknown brands. She said: "While searching on Amazon, you're likely to come across products from random, unrecognisable brands. "These products often undercut key players on price, but without brand reputation, you risk sacrificing quality and durability." Meanwhile, Tom Church, founder of previously said shoppers should take advantage of offers on garden tools and tech gadgets.

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.
