Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 5 will be available on PC for free to Amazon Prime members from next month.
DICE’s first person shooters Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 5 are coming to Prime Gaming for a limited time only and will be free for those with an Amazon Prime membership. Battlefield 1 will be available to download on PC from today until August 4, 2021, and Battlefield 5 from August 2 until October 1, 2021.
The video game streaming service previously gave away Battlefield 4 last month as part of their one free PC game a month promise for subscribers of the service. They’ve also given away other free benefits such as gifting GTA Online players with GTA$400,000 this month, and offering a LucasArts Point-and-Click classics collection which contained three games this summer too.
In a similar format to PlayStation Plus and the Epic Games store who give away games on a regular basis, once downloaded Battlefield 1 and 5 will be yours forever to keep - regardless of the status of your Amazon Prime membership. All you need to do is have an active Amazon Prime subscription and a PC good enough to run the games you’re downloading to access them.
