Amazon Prime subscribers can pick up a classic RPG game for free this month
Planescape Torment and Star Wars: Rogue Squadron are up for grabs
Amazon has revealed the next batch of games that Prime subscribers can pick up for free this month.
Leading the pack is Planescape Torment: Enhanced Edition, the 2017 HD re-release of Black Isle Studio’s beloved CRPG. Baldur’s Gate often gets credited for ushering in the world of RPGs genre as we know it, but Planescape: Torment set the standard for story-driven roleplaying and elegant writing that ranged from the horrifying to the fantastical to the hilarious.
➡️ The Shortcut Skinny: Amazon Prime Gaming
🙌 The next batch of Amazon Prime games is here
⚔ Classic RPG Planescape Torment is up for grabs
🚀 As is the arcade flight simulator Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 3D
🤩 Prime members can claim and keep them forever for free
It’s joined by Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 3D, an arcade spaceship simulator from back in 1998. It doesn’t compare to Motive’s spiritual successor Star Wars: Squadrons from a few years ago, but if you missed picking that gem up for free last year, Rogue Squadron is still able to hold its own surprisingly well for a 25-year-old game.
Outside of those heavyweights, there are a bunch more smaller titles. Check out every game that’ll be hitting Prime Gaming this month below:

Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 3D

As usual, all the games are free to claim if you’re an Amazon Prime subscriber and can be kept forever, even after your membership ends.
It’s not been a bad few months for Prime members. Amazon gave away a fantastic horror game at the start of the year and before that handed out Total War: Warhammer 2 and Middle-Earth: Shadow of War, and classic RPG Fallout: New Vegas. They’re older titles, of course, but essential additions to any gaming library.
