All the PC games in the Prime Early Access sale that are worth having

(Pocket-lint) – If you’re trying to grab a good discount on PC games during the year, then there are a few things to watch out for. The Steam sales are an obvious one, as is Black Friday but there are also deals on games happening during the Amazon Prime Early Access sale.  This sale not only knocks money off video games in general, but PC games too and we’ve seen plenty of bargains on old and new games alike, so it’s worth keeping an eye out. 

Here’s everything you need to know about what’s happening with PC game deals.

Think of the Amazon Prime Early Access sale as Prime Day mark two. It doesn’t seem long since Prime Day happened back in July, but if you missed out then now might be your chance to grab a bargain. 

Though these early access sales are set to happen over two days, we’re fully expecting more discounts in the following days too.
