Prime members can play their favorite survival horror games for free now.
[Amazon Prime Gaming (opens in a new tab), you can get a free GOG copy of The Evil Within 2 at this very moment. Well, sort of free, except for the monthly subscription fee you've been paying. If so, it could be the most expensive game you ever buy.

Don't worry, this one's on the better side: while the first Evil Within was less scary but more technical, the second is more open in design, giving you a better grasp of the guilt-ridden characters. Overall, the game is much more confident than its predecessor, even if the first film had the old survival-horror charm.

When Joe Donnelly gave Evil Within 2 a high score of 80% in his review, he praised its extraordinary scare set pieces, noting that it infused classic survival horror with "enough psychological terror to keep it fresh." He also ranked it on his list of the best horror games you can play right now.

Signing up for the game is simple: sign in to your Amazon account (you subscribe to Prime) and the page linked above will spit out a code, which you enter into the code redemption (opens in a new tab) section of GOG. You now have a DRM-free copy of the game, which you can use as you please until the end. Or GOG.

This is not the only game you can get for free right now. The GOG version of the wonderful "Dishonored 2" (opens in a new tab) will be available in a month or so, and if you want to put the "Metal Slug" game in your June diary, it's just a year away. It's about time the monthly Bezos donation came back to us.
