The long-awaited moment has arrived: the list of games that will join Prime Gaming for January 2024 has been revealed. How to start the new year in the best conditions? Not really.
Amazon continues its monthly tradition by enriching its Prime Gaming offer with new free games. As the year 2023 has just bowed out to make way for the new year, the list for January 2024 has just been revealed. This diverse selection may not include big AAA titles, but it has the merit of offering works that fundamentally stand out from what we are used to seeing.
Free Amazon Prime Gaming games for January 2024
The list of games available in January 2024 on Amazon Prime Gaming has arrived, ready to delight subscribers from January 4. Let’s start writing this news now. This selection starts with a title awarded by a BAFTA. Subscribers will have something to look forward to with a varied menu that goes beyond major productions to also include lesser-known but equally captivating games. It’s a golden opportunity to discover new fun nuggets, especially since it’s included in the subscription. And therefore completely free.
We warn you in advance that the month of January 2024 promises to be quite light on Prime Gaming. Unlike previous months, the offer only includes four games, which can be considered a small disappointment for subscribers accustomed to a wider selection. Between that and the end of the partnership between Amazon and Riot Games… The year 2024 is off to a difficult start for Prime. Enough chatter:
January 4
- Endling – Extinction is Forever [Amazon Games App] : It is a 3D side-scrolling survival adventure game, developed by Herobeat Studios. Released on July 19, 2022, the game places you in the role of the last vixen on Earth, accompanied by her cubs, in a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by human actions… Yes, it’s sad. Gameplay focuses on the survival of the vixen and her cubs, requiring the player to feed them, protect them, and teach them skills to increase their chances of survival. Throughout the game, the mother fox meets various characters, including hunters, a furrier, and a young girl named Molly, who helps the foxes by giving them food. The game is described as being Eco-conscious.
January 11
- Apico [Amazon Games App] : we stay a little in the ecological domain. Apico is a 2D beekeeping simulation game. Released in May 2022, this game allows players to discover and encounter different species of bees in an archipelago. Inspired by real-life genetics and biology, the game focuses on bee conservation. The player manages resources and participates in beekeeping mini-games. It also incorporates menu management aspects and offers a fairly relaxed gaming experience, without the possibility of failure.
January 18
- Atari Mania [Epic Games Store] : a gem for retrogaming fans. As the name suggests, it is a collection of microgames inspired by Atari classics. This offers a fast and dynamic gaming experience with puzzles, speed challenges and boss fights. The player embodies the guardian of the Atari vault.
January 25: the last game of the month on Prime Gaming
- Yars: Recharged [Epic Games Store] : another nugget for the “oldies”. Yars: Recharged is a remake of the classic 1982 game Yars’ Revenge, developed by Adamvision Studios and published by Atari. Released on August 23, 2022, it is a twin-stick shooter in which the player controls an anthropomorphic fly-like Yar. The goal is to charge a meter that powers the Zorlon cannon, the only one capable of piercing the Qotile enemy’s shields, while facing other enemies and dodging the Qotile’s devastating lasers. An old-fashioned game then.
Finally, in January 2024, Amazon Luna is offering Prime members nine free games, including Control, Fortnite, Kitaria Fables, and others. This offer enriches the gaming experience on Amazon’s streaming platform, offering a variety of titles for all tastes.
