Arkane Lyon’s time-bending FPS Deathloop is free on PC for Amazon Prime members. You have until January 10 to download the game. Additionally, you’ll need to link an active Epic Games Store account, but Amazon has made it simple to do that right on the download page. This isn’t a rental.
As for Deathloop, it’s a fantastic title that marries the harried frenzy of a first person shooter with the intrigue of an old-school adventure title like Myst.
You’re trapped on an island in a Groundhog Day-esque time loop and have to figure a way out. The game’s filled with thoughtful puzzles and the combat is satisfying, which is no surprise coming from the folks behind Dishonored.
In other words, this is one of the most unique and flat-out fun releases of the current generation. It’s a steal at full price, so free is a no-brainer. Deathloop is also available on Game Pass, if that’s your bag. Developer Arkane is currently busy working on a game based on Marvel’s resident vampire hunter, Blade.
