Amazon is upgrading Prime with a serious new benefit: free games every month. The new free games are part of Twitch Prime, which is basically Amazon Prime. If you are an existing Amazon Prime subscriber, you can connect your Amazon account to your Twitch and start enjoying the benefits at no extra cost.

The new Free Games with Prime program is very much like Xbox’s Games with Gold. However, on Twitch Prime, you are able to keep the games forever after the month’s end which is pretty neat. To kick things off, Amazon is giving away Superhot, Shadow Tactics, Tales from Candlkeep, Oxenfree, and Mr. Shifty for this month. The company will bring Tales from the Borderlands, SteamWorld Dig 2, Kingsway, Tokyo 42, and Dubwars in April.

Along with the free games, Twitch/Amazon Prime comes with the usual ad-free experience on Twitch, some in-game loot every now and then, as well as a subscription to one channel of your choice.
