Amazon has apparently decided to sell its popular games such as “Grand Theft Auto” and “Assassin's Creed: Syndicate” to Prime members only.

This is an attempt of the retail company to lure more people to sign up for a Prime membership. Some video games and movies are only available from Amazon if they are actually a Prime member. Reports say that customers from United States and United Kingdom who do not have Prime membership are not able to purchase games from the online retailer.

Amazon Prime aims to be a value-incentive program that encourages people to pay an annual fee to Amazon in exchange for free two-day shipping, access to the video-on-demand services, and several other perks.

Among the games included in the purchase exclusivity for Prime members are: "GTA V," "Rainbow Six: Siege" and "Far Cry Primal," "Minecraft," "FIFA 16," "Dishonored: Definitive Edition," "Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor," "Elder Scrolls Online," "Assassin's Creed Syndicate," "Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes," "Battlefield Hardline," and "Farming Simulator."

“One of the many benefits of Amazon Prime is access to exclusive selection on a number of great products. Customers who are not Prime members can sign-up for a 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime, or they can purchase those items from a Marketplace seller,” Amazon said in a statement.

Earlier this week, Amazon Prime ahs announced another monthly subscription options. For the increased shipping rates, discounts and other exclusive features, customers can pay $10.99. A subscription to stream Amazon Prime Video without any of the other membership benefits costs $8.99.
