Summary
- Amazon subscribed Prime members with free access to Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas.
- The offer comes with a catch in that it's limited to Luna versions of the games, thus only being available in select countries.
- Two other Fallout games are currently free to claim for Prime members.
Amazon has subscribed Prime members with free access to some of the most critically acclaimed and universally beloved Fallout games ever made, including Fallout: New Vegas. However, the offer comes with a catch in that it's tied to the company's cloud gaming service, meaning only Fallout fans from a select few countries will get to take advantage of it.
The promotion itself is geared toward celebrating the release of the Fallout television series. The Amazon-produced TV adaptation debuted to predominantly positive reviews on April 10.
A day later, the company opted to commemorate the occasion by expanding its Prime Gaming offerings to include Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. While the subscription service often distributes game store codes, this particular promotion only allows members to access the included games via Luna, Amazon's cloud gaming service. Fallout 3 and New Vegas will be free for Luna users until October 2024. The six-month window of opportunity to play them will naturally only be open to Prime members in Luna-supported countries: the United States, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom.

Following this move, Amazon subscribers are currently able to play up to four entries in the iconic franchise at no extra cost; Fallout 76 is also available as a free Prime Gaming game for April 2024 starting today, while Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel has been free to claim since late March. The 2001 strategy RPG is distributed via GOG, while Fallout 76 is available to Prime members in the form of either an Xbox or Microsoft Store code. Unlike Fallout 3 and New Vegas, both Fallout Tactics and Fallout 76 are free to keep forever.
Three other games have become available to claim for Prime members starting April 11, including the charming puzzle adventure Drawn: Trail of Shadows. Stylish escape game Faraway 3: Arctic Escape is also part of this month's offerings, as is Demon's Tilt, a hectic pinball game with an occult theme. While these niche titles all boast largely positive user reviews, the Fallout series is definitely the highlight of the new free game batch from Amazon.
Aside from these freebies, the company has also been experimenting with more creative ways of promoting its latest Prime Video exclusive. To that end, the Fallout TV series has recently received a themed burger meal from Grubhub. The unique offering debuted in New York City and Los Angeles on April 11, but has ostensibly already been sold out, as only 150 meals were made available for each city.

WHERE TO PLAY
Welcome to Vegas. New Vegas.
It’s the kind of town where you dig your own grave prior to being shot in the head and left for dead…and that’s before things really get ugly. It’s a town of dreamers and desperados being torn apart by warring factions vying for complete control of this desert oasis. It’s a place where the right kind of person with the right kind of weaponry can really make a name for themselves, and make more than an enemy or two along the way.
As you battle your way across the heat-blasted Mojave Wasteland, the colossal Hoover Dam, and the neon drenched Vegas Strip, you’ll be introduced to a colorful cast of characters, power-hungry factions, special weapons, mutated creatures and much more. Choose sides in the upcoming war or declare “winner takes all” and crown yourself the King of New Vegas in this follow-up to the 2008 videogame of the year, Fallout 3.
Enjoy your stay.
