Sometimes, I wonder when Amazon/Twitch will stop with the weekly “free games with Prime.” At least, then I can go back to making these articles where I moan about online and free-to-play games a monthly occurrence. Nonetheless, we’re one more month into the void that feels like a life-long pandemic lockdown. A thing all of us want to see an end of, though with different views on what is more important: Money or human life. I’m getting off track, let’s get to the Twitch Prime “loot” in free-to-play mobile games, battle royales, and other gubbins.

  • Big Farm: Mobile Harvest has moved on from the profile picture offered, now offering what seems to be a building speed-up. The “Building Effect Item Super” is available until August 10th.
  • Mobile Legends: Bang Bang is, once again, offering an Amazon Prime chest and hero and skin trail cards. This offer ends on the 11th of August.
  • In the final edition of the Legends of Runeterra loot, once again players are offered a Twitch Prime Capsule featuring a champion wildcard, an expedition token, a rare wildcard, and an epic wildcard. This offer ends on the 29th of August.

As Warframe made headlines in the community over the weekend with developer Digital Extremes talking about the next update, the Warframe loot updated. Along with the Ember Warframe that is still available, players can now also pick up the Infested Power Pack, featuring the Apis Syandana, a 7-day resource booster, and a 7-day resource drop chance booster. The Infested pack is in line with where the game is heading next with a new planet. This offer is available until September 22nd.

  • Replacing Seven Deadly Sins is Epic Seven, 2D RPG with heavy anime woman syndrome. The first of the total twelve drops is a single ticket to summon a star hero of 4-5, which I don’t understand. This offer ends on the 12 of August.
  • If you’ve caught this article early enough, you can pick up the final drop from Seven Deadly Sins of three event dungeon keys. This ends on the 4th of August.
  • Black Desert Mobile players can pick up the Abyssal Lightstone set if they are quick enough to pick it up before the 4th. Following that, for two weeks players can get the growth support chest.

Red Dead Online is testing my patience, once again changing its “offer ending…” date to an odd date. Players of Rockstar’s rather trite MMO full of cheaters and “whales” recently updated with the naturalist role. With Twitch Prime players can get 1,000 in-game dollars for just logging on once. They can also get five legendary animal pheromones, 6,000 naturalist XP, a free wilderness camp, the Katata Elk coat, 15 percent off the purchase of a camp dop, tent, and vest for players below rank 15, and 10 special health cures, snake oils, miracle tonics, and bitters. This offer supposedly ends on the 29th of June (2021?), though it may very well be August, no one knows.

  • League of Legends players can look forward to six bi-weekly drops of mystery skins, the first of which is available until the 7th of August.
  • Players of League of Legends Teamfight Tactics can now pick up the final (as far as we know) little legends egg, available until the 24th of August.
  • If you missed last week’s article, Apex Legends players can pick up both the Pathfinder Swimming Buddy skin and the Mix Tape gun charm. This is available until August the 27th.

I said it last week, I’ll say it again. World of Warships Legends is pandering to the basic straight man with the Ashley Violet bundle and now Azur Lane container and commander. If you don’t know, Azur Lane is a side-scrolling shoot ’em up with Anthropomorphized World War II battleships in skirts so short you can see where they store the lifeboats. it is the usual depiction of young women that a developer will promise is over 18-years old, even though they all look to be 12. With your subscription, you need to complete a level 8+ mission to get the anime-like commander that will have you on a register by the end of the day. This offer ends on the 20th of August.

  • Players of FIFA 20 can now pick up the sixth and penultimate pack of Twitch Prime packs, with the same tripe as before. This offer ends on the 18th of August.
  • Runescape players can once again get four Umbral Chests with their subscription, containing loot that’s super-rare or better. This offer ends on August 11th.
  • Those playing Yahtzee with Buddies can still pick up the Dice World Rush giveaway as the second drop of the nine announced. This offer ends on the 6th of August.

Those playing Grand Theft Auto Online, can throw away money on useless micro-transactions as usual. Once again the offers available for Rockstar games are lacking the detail of when they actually end, so you might want to be quick on this one. Players can claim 200,000 in-game dollars each week up to a total of $1,000,000. Continuing your criminal activities of claiming money from the local LS government to buy sports cars, or the wheel in GTA’s case, you can get a rebate on buying a nightclub in-game. Just like Rockstar claiming and getting rebates.

  • Those playing King of Avalon can still get their speed-ups and such throughout the month, with the present one ending on August 5th. Following that, you’ll want to pick up the last two by the 19th of August and the 2nd of September.
  • I’ve been proven wrong before by these things, but the final skin and charm for Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is only available until the 6th of August. Players can still get the Ying Operator set with their subscription.
  • Speaking of ending soon. You can still unlock 7 weapon skins with 50 vault coins and a pack of potions for Dauntless. This offer is available until August the 10th.

In the preceding month, Amazon/Twitch fixed the mess with their Destiny 2 information tab. However, It doesn’t help that I still can’t make sense of it. Yes, the Tractor Cannon Exotic bundle is available and offers the Tractor Cannon Exotic shotgun, a Machinist’s Trove Exotic skin for the said gun, the Shadow Trespass Exotic Ship (must translate from Klingon as “rust-covered”), and the Cavalcade Legendary Sparrow. This offer ends on the 19th of August.

  • Those playing World of Tanks can still pick up Care Package July and the captured King Tiger, all ahead of the August care package. Offer ends August 18th.
  • Speaking of starter packs, those wanting a start in Warface need be quick as its starter pack ends August 4th. TERA‘s pack continues onto November 19th.
  • Finally, the last of the DOOM Eternal skins have dropped, with the Hotrod Slayer skin, as well as a new profile icon and title.

Though that’s not all, as added this past week was more of the SNK collection available through until March 31st, though it was previously announced to end on December 31st. A further several games have been added on top of those already available. SNK 40th Anniversary CollectionMetal Slug 2Sengoku 3King of the MonstersIroncladShock Troopers 2nd Squad, and Baseball Stars 2, all added midway through this past week. Though some Prime subscribers may already own some of these on Prime as they were previously available.

We’re not done however, as the games added last week were a total of eight. Another Plug In Digital game, Dead In Vinland is a survival management game with RPG and adventure elements. It features hipster Vikings that only have long hair and a beard because it is “ironic.” I guess they don’t have dictionaries in Vinland. In combat, it is your turn-based Darkest Dungeon gameplay, with usual RPG elements of talking to every sod about feeling outside of it.

Lastly, the games for this month might as well be more of the SNK releases: starting with what is known for being offensive, bad, and in general offensively bad, Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn. The crowdfunded sequel to the 1994 2D fighter is free. The game was meant to be ported to six platforms if the goal was met, though the PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii U ports were quickly canceled. Though don’t worry, it’s not the only side-scrolling brawler, there is another to come.

Warsaw is not just that place you roll your eyes at in history class, there is also a game by that name. You’ll remember a paragraph and a half ago I said something about Darkest Dungeon-like turn-based tactics RPG gameplay, jump back up to that for a minute. Yes, a roguelike set in World War II where you crawl your way through streets to fight off, as the game puts it, “occupying forces.” They are Nazis, as simple as can be, that villain you could kick for ten hours once dead and still not feel an ounce of sympathy because they are Nazis.

Chroma Squad is a tactical RPG by the Brazillian developer behind Galaxy of Pen and Paper and Knights of Pen and Paper. The latter two take place as sword and sorcery and sci-fi-style Dungeon and Dragons RPGs games, while the former is a tactical RPG love letter to Tokusatsu such as Kamen RiderUltraman, and the very popular 90s American take on the genre, Power Rangers. You play as the five heroes facing off with the monster of the week. If you’re a fan of tactics RPGs or Tokusatsu, I’m sure you’ve already run off to pick this one up.

Going on with the 90s theme that we’ve got going, if you enjoyed the ridiculously over the top side-scrolling shoot ’em ups of the 90s, you’ll love Blazing Chrome. A retro pixel art indie game aping and near enough being Contra. I said it, most of this month is rose-tinted nostalgia that might as well have been replaced with games of the time, and I’d notice no difference.

The final game is exactly that in every which way. A 2D low pixel count side-scrolling brawler with RPG elements and over the top exaggerations of characters; Why yes, there is a bit of a wrestling influence too. Treachery in Beatdown City is garish, uncomfortably covered in UI, and featuring a late 20th-century plot of saving a president. I don’t have anything else to say about it, it is just one of those games that I’d happily let pass me by.
