Amazon gives all Prime members a free Xbox game – here's how to claim yours

Xbox Series X in front of TV.
Quick Summary

Amazon Prime Gaming doesn't just reward Prime members with 23 free PC games this month, everyone gets an Xbox game too.

Minecraft Legends is available to redeem now for Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One.

For the last few years, Amazon Prime members have been able to redeem free games through the include Prime Gaming perk, with 100s of them being given away each year.

However, they've always been PC games until very recently, so if you don't own a gaming PC or a handheld, such as the Steam Deck, you've not really been able to play them.

For the last couple of months though, Amazon has added an Xbox game to the mix – with one of the monthly titles coming for PC and Xbox consoles. That was Wolfenstein: The Old Blood last month, but you can now claim another.

Minecraft Legends is a real-time strategy game set in the world of Minecraft and the giveaway is timed to coincide with the new movie hitting cinemas.

Offered for free on PC and Xbox consoles – Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S – it tasks you with protecting the Overworld from regular invasions of Piglins. You can build defensive structures, harvest resources and raise your own fighting troops – all in Minecraft's blocky style.

The game can be redeemed by heading to the Amazon Prime Gaming site and clicking on the Xbox version of Minecraft Legends. Then tap on "Get Game" and it'll give you a code that can be redeemed on your Xbox console (in the Store's side menu) or on Microsoft's redemption page online... you just need a Microsoft account first.

The other PC games to be available to all Amazon Prime members this month include Mafia III: Definitive Edition, Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain, and Endless Space: Definitive Edition.
