Quick Summary

Amazon Prime Gaming is making 22 games free to download in May.

Of those, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus will be available for Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One, as well as PC. All the others are for PC only.

Amazon Prime Gaming is one of the best services out there. Not only is it included in a Prime subscription as a completely free perk, it regularly gives away a whole stack of games each month – which don't cost you a penny more.

Most of them are for the PC, with many running well on the likes of the Steam Deck too. However, for the last couple months, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One owners have been able to snag a free game, too.

Last month, Prime Gaming gave away Minecraft Legends on PC and Xbox, while the month before yielded Wolfenstein: The Old Blood. Now, in May, you can redeem another in the acclaimed FPS series, with Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus available from next week.

Set in an alternate America in the 1960s – one where the Nazi's won the second World War – the game sees the return of BJ Blazkowicz as he seeks to once again disrupt the new world order.

The game was critically acclaimed on its release in 2017, and now you can find out why when it arrives on Prime Gaming on 8 May. While it's not a new game per se, it is new to the Prime Gaming platform.

You can redeem it on Xbox and/or PC by visiting Amazon's dedicated Prime Gaming website and clicking on the Claim Game button. It'll give you a code that can be entered into a redemption box on your Xbox console's Store page or on Microsoft's redemption page online. You will need Prime membership (of course), plus a Microsoft account.

Another 21 PC games will also be available through Prime Gaming this month, including some that have been added already. It's worth remembering that all of the games – including Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus – will only be available for around a month, so you'll need to redeem them quickly.

There are some games still available on Prime Gaming from last month's drop.
