Amazon replaces Twitch Prime with Prime Gaming, offers free games and exclusive content

Amazon is rebranding all of its game-related offerings and extras for Prime users by turning Twitch Prime into Prime Gaming. The platform will continue to offer the same services. However, the name change will put it in line with services such Prime Music and Prime Video in terms of branding and also place a larger emphasis on the gaming part.

The latest version of Twitch Prime will come with a monthly Twitch subscription to your favourite streamer and also have a range of new gaming content along with some free games. However, there won’t be any changes to the services and you will still have access to all the games you have collected in your library.
