Adjust your watches, because Deathloop is joining the Prime Gaming service on December 7.
You can redeem an Epic Games Store code from Amazon’s website on that date. You will need to be a Prime Gaming subscriber to pick this up, alongside the other games headed to the service.
The December Prime Gaming lineup isn’t that bad
Deathloop isn’t the only game being given out for Prime Gaming subscribers in December. There will also be the following:
December 14
- Akka Arrh
- Aground
- SeaOrama: World of Shipping
December 21
- Kombinera (through the Epic Games Store)
December 28
- A Tiny Sticker Sale
- Asteroids: Recharged (through the Epic Games Store)
Every game other than Deathloop, Kombinera, and Asteroids: Recharged will be available through the Amazon Games app. Asteroids: Recharged, in particular, seems to be an intriguing modern twist on the classic Atari game with co-op functionality and visual upgrades.
Deathloop is worth checking out
Before the mediocrity that was Redfall, developer Arkane Studios created a unique FPS called Deathloop, which revolves around time. Like Groundhog Day, you’re repeating the same day over and over, but as you explore the game’s world, you’ll find out more about the characters and the environments you inhabit. One plus is that you don’t have to be hounded by Ned Ryerson every day.
You’re also gathering intel on each of your targets while chased down by a (sometimes player-controlled) rival. There’s a lot going on in Deathloop, but it’s an intriguing take on the tired genre.
Deathloop won multiple Game of the Year awards in 2021 from outlets such as GameSpot and the Critic’s Choice award from Golden Joystick. “Deathloop combines a classic Arkane stealthy-shooty foundation with a genuinely interesting and fun premise to aplomb,” our review said.
