A new batch of free Destiny 2 loot is available for Amazon Prime subscribers. This time, players can grab a pack of exotics that will give their guardian some flair.

To claim the Standoff Exotic Bundle, head over to Prime Gaming’s Destiny 2 page. If you have an Amazon Prime subscription, you’ll be able to click on the bundle and press Claim Now. If you haven’t already, you’ll need to link your Amazon account to your Destiny account.

Once claimed, log into Destiny 2 and head to the shipyard on The Tower. Amanda Holliday will give you a package containing four exotic items. You’ll need to make sure you’ve completed the game’s introductory mission before you can claim the bundle.

While the pack doesn’t include any weapons or pieces of armor, it does contain some colorful cosmetics. The Neox Helix is a particular standout, giving your ghost a flowery, neon face-lift. The Vespulaser Sparrow bears a resemblance to the popular Outbreak Prime weapon, while the Egbe-01X legendary ship comes with a slick green-and-yellow design.

The pack includes the new Standoff emote, which was previously available as part of the Forsaken DLC. Using it makes a guardian quick-draw their weapon like Clint Eastwood in a Western shootout.

The pack is part of Destiny and Amazon’s ongoing relationship, which gives Prime subscribers 10 different loot packs. Bungie and Amazon recently extended the rewards program for an additional four months.

While most of the bundles are no longer available, two more are still on the horizon. Players will need to remain Amazon Prime subscribers to pick that last pair up. Previous bundles included popular exotic weapons like SUROS Regime and Prometheus Lens, so more free weapons could be on the way.

The drops are available on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Google Stadia. The Standoff Exotic Bundle is available to claim until September 23.

In the meantime, Destiny 2’s extended Season of Arrivals is still going. Bungie’s looter-shooter is currently in the middle of its Moments of Triumph event, which gives players incentives for completing a variety of tasks. The upcoming Beyond Light expansion, which was originally set for a September release, will launch on November 10.

Forget console wars. Steam Machine may help kill lazy PC gaming ports
Valve’s expensive mini PC could become PC gaming’s new baseline
Steam Machine with Steam Controller

Valve’s Steam Machine has become easy to dunk on. The price starts well above current consoles, and the hardware sits somewhere between entry-level and mid-range gaming PCs rather than a monster rig. Early reviews have also talked about how demanding games need upscaling, trimmed settings, and realistic expectations.

With the ongoing memory crisis, it sounds like a rough time to bring a PC to the couch. Though the Steam Machine doesn't need to beat high-end gaming PCs or the big consoles. Its purpose was different from the start. And what really makes it better is how it could shift the PC gaming segment entirely.

GTA 6 may not get the real physical release fans were hoping for
The game may come in a case, but not on a disc

Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders recently went live, but the excitement came with one frustrating catch. The so-called physical edition of the game will not include a disc. Instead, buyers will get a box with cover art and a download code inside.

That decision immediately caused backlash online, especially among collectors who still care about owning games on disc. For a while, there was some hope that this would only be temporary. Reports suggested that Rockstar could release a proper disc version of GTA 6 in December 2026, giving physical media fans something to wait for.

The Steam Machine launch hasn’t even happened, but the resale circus has begun
Scalpers are already trying to cash in on Valve’s Steam Machine

Valve has started sending out reservation emails for the Steam Machine ahead of its June 30 launch, and scalpers have wasted no time turning the whole thing into a comedy act.

The Steam Machine is already an expensive device, as RAM and SSD prices have made hardware pricing miserable across the industry. Valve has previously said it would like to lower the price if component costs improve. That makes the resale listings even harder to take seriously, because the official price was already higher than many people expected before scalpers added their own fantasy tax.
