Amazon Prime Now offers Special Release Night Delivery for new computer game
Amazon’s Prime Now service will be offering special delivery windows for Prime members in the US wanting to get the new Call of Duty: Black Ops III game delivered to their door when it is officially released at midnight this Friday (6 November). In a statement issued by Amazon last Friday (30 October), Stephenie Landry, Amazon’s worldwide director of Prime Now, commented: “Why wait in lines on release night when we’ll bring Call of Duty: Black Ops III right to your door? We’re making it easy for hardcore gamers to download the app, reserve a coveted delivery window for midnight delivery and sit back while the game comes right to their doors.”
Release night pre-orders for the game must be placed using the Prime Now app with reservations starting at midnight eastern standard time tomorrow (4 November).
Customers will be able to choose a special delivery window, select additional items they might need for their “late night mission” – such as beverages, snacks or extra gaming controllers – and pre-order the game for late night delivery on Friday.
Prime Now is currently offered in Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Indianapolis, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Manhattan, Miami, Minneapolis, Orange County, Phoenix, Portland, Sacramento, San Antonio, San Francisco, San Jose, and Seattle.
Amazon added: “For these special, late night Call of Duty: Black Ops III two-hour delivery windows, there will be no delivery fees.”
