Amazon Prime offers more than just speedy shipping—it unlocks a range of lesser-known benefits, especially for gamers. One standout perk is Amazon Luna, the company’s dedicated cloud gaming service. With Luna’s Standard edition now included in every Prime subscription, members can instantly play a rotating library of games right from their browser—even on a Steam Deck. Plus, Luna brings back one of Prime Gaming’s most popular features: a free collection of downloadable PC games every month that you can keep forever.
Recent giveaways have featured acclaimed titles like Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition, Tomb Raider I–III Remastered, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Elite Dangerous. These free games often come as digital codes redeemable not just on Luna, but also on major platforms such as GOG and Epic Games.
Playing Prime Games on Steam Deck
Thanks to the Heroic Games Launcher, enjoying these free games on your Steam Deck is easier than ever. Heroic is a safe, open-source app that works seamlessly with Linux—the same operating system that powers the Steam Deck. To get started, switch your Steam Deck to Desktop mode, open the Discover app, and search for “Heroic.” Install the launcher from the search results, then log in to your Epic, Amazon, or GOG accounts.
For games that don’t natively support Linux, you might also need to install the latest Proton compatibility layers through Heroic’s Wine Manager tab. To integrate these games into your Steam library, add them manually via Heroic’s settings menu or enable the “Add Games To Steam Automatically” option under General settings. Restart your Steam Deck to finalize the setup.
With Amazon Prime’s free game library and the straightforward setup via Heroic Games Launcher, you’ll save money—and might even find it’s the perfect opportunity to invest in a few new Steam Deck accessories.
