Ghostwire: Tokyo's player count tops 6m

Ghostwire: Tokyo came as a real surprise to me. When I first saw it I thought, «I'm not going to like this,» but when I finally got around to playing it I realized, «Whoa, I like this a lot.» Which is my way of saying that now that it's free for Prime Gaming subscribers on Amazon, you should definitely pick it up.

Tango Gameworks' spooky open world action/adventure game Ghostwire: Tokyo can now be grabbed for free on PC via Prime Gaming.

Thank your own personal deity—possibly the Kuchisake—it's Friday! Today, we're going to round out the school holidays with some pretty sweet opportunities.

I've also scoured the online stores for the best prices on the hottest Q4 prospects, not to mention some old gold that's going for dirt cheap!
