Amazon Prime Is Giving Away Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition — Grab It Free Before Season 2 Lands
Amazon Prime members can grab a couple of classic Fallout titles for free right now, and one of them is a great way to catch up before the next season of the Fallout show arrives on Prime Video. In short: Prime Gaming’s latest lineup includes Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition and Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition, and Prime members keep the downloads forever.
What is free
As part of Prime Gaming’s October update, Amazon Prime members can download Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition and Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition. Members retain the downloadable games in their accounts permanently.
Why it matters for the show
Firstly, the new season of the Fallout TV series is set to land on Prime Video on Dec. 17. Secondly, the show’s trailers and images have already shown locations and faces tied to New Vegas — for example, Walton Goggins’ character arriving at the Lucky 38 Casino and Resort. Therefore, playing Fallout: New Vegas gives viewers a chance to see the game locations and characters that appear in the series, including Mr. House, who is both a major figure in the game and briefly seen in season 1.
How to get the games
To claim the games, go to Prime Gaming while you have an active Amazon Prime subscription. The Prime Gaming page lists free titles for members; follow the usual download or claim steps there. For convenience, you can find both titles on the Prime Gaming page here: Prime Gaming free games.
Game details
Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition includes the base game plus all DLC and add-ons, so players won’t miss content tied to the main New Vegas storyline. Meanwhile, Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition is included in the same Prime Gaming drop and is the edition that bundles the game’s expansions. Both are classic open-world RPGs from Bethesda and Obsidian, and both are available to keep after claiming them with Prime.
