Amazon's new batch of free games for Amazon Prime subscribers are live now. March's Prime Gaming lineup includes five freebies as well as in-game loot for a variety of popular games.

Blasphemous , a metroidvania that released in 2019, is one of the most notable Prime Gaming freebies we've seen in quite a while. Set in a dark and dreary world littered with religious iconography, Blasphemous stars a nameless knight on a pilgrimage. Blasphemous' haunting atmosphere helps to tell its grim but gripping story.
