Amazon’s first Fire TV games include in-house titles and Minecraft
Amazon’s new Fire TV media hub may be focused on video, but it’s going to have a significant game roster — including some examples from the company itself. Amazon Game Studios is building more than a dozen titles for the set-top box that include Sev Zero, a Gears of War-like sci-fi shooter. You’ll have some third-party games to choose from, of course, such a special port of Minecraft Pocket Edition, a Monsters Inc. endless runner and the arcade racer Asphalt 8. “Thousands” of games will be available within a month, and you’ll see software from major developers like Ubisoft and Take Two. While you shouldn’t count on Fire TV replacing your PS4 or Xbox One any time soon, it’s evident that you won’t be hurting for things to play.
