On Monday, Amazon announced Prime Gaming, which is essentially a rebranding of its Twitch Prime service that provides exclusive game content. Plotnick declined to say how many people had joined Twitch Prime; he said it was one of the fastest-growing parts of Amazon Prime. Last year, Apple released a video game subscription service, Apple Arcade, and Google debuted a mobile gaming service, Stadia. In 2014, it bought Twitch, which is used mostly to stream video games, for $970 million. In May, Amazon introduced “Crucible,” which was a free-to-play multiplayer shooter game produced by a subsidiary of Amazon Game Studios.
