Quick Links:
Prime Gaming’s October lineup is stacked with 14 claimable PC titles that land in four weekly drops. Two are available now, and the rest arrive every Thursday through October 30th.
Claims route through the Amazon Games app, GOG codes or the Epic Games Store, so storage and launcher juggling matter more this month than usual. I’d prioritise long-tail keepers like XCOM 2 and the Fallout pair, then fill the gaps with short-session horror for Halloween week.
How to claim quickly
- Link your Amazon Prime and Twitch accounts, then head to Prime Gaming on desktop.
- Claim each game within its window. You’ll redeem via Amazon Games app, GOG or Epic Games Store as indicated.
- Install and keep forever. Brand retirement is cosmetic for now, the monthly free-game benefit remains.

What I’d grab first and why
- XCOM 2 is the marquee strategy pick. Mod-friendly on GOG, huge replay value, and ideal to park in your library for years.
- Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition and Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition are complete, DRM-free RPG time capsules. If you plan to mod, the GOG builds are painless.
- For spooky season, Tormented Souls scratches that classic survival horror itch, You Will Die Here Tonight blends resource management with slasher tension, and Werewolf: The Apocalypse: Heart of the Forest is a tight narrative run you can finish in an evening.
If you’ve been quietly redeeming these freebies from Amazon Prime Gaming the past couple of years, then you would have quite the collection in regards to the Fallout series. Back in March 2024, critically acclaimed Fallout 2 was a freebie that could be claimed on the platform.
Bonus if you stream games
Prime members in supported regions also get a rotating slate on Amazon Luna. If your rig is low on space, Luna lets you sample headliners like Borderlands 3, Dead Island 2 Ultimate Edition, and the Fallout classics instantly, then decide what to install locally from the keep-forever list.
