Amazon on Thursday unveiled its revamped game streaming service, Amazon Luna, which now includes new beginner-friendly multiplayer games that can be controlled with your phone. Amazon Luna is available at no extra cost for Prime members.
The biggest change to the service is the addition of GameNight, a collection of more than 25 local multiplayer games that Amazon says are โdesigned to bring friends and family together in the living room.โ
GameNight will feature exclusive titles developed by Amazon Game Studios, starting with โCourtroom Chaos: Starring Snoop Dogg,โ an AI voice-driven improv courtroom game where players invent absurd characters, spin wild stories, and try to defend their testimoniesย in front of Judge Snoop Dogg.
Other titles in GameNight include โAngry Birds Flock Party,โ โDraw & Guess,โ The Jackbox Party Pack 9,โ โTicket to Ride,โ โExploding Kittens 2,โ โClue,โ โTetris Effect: Connected,โ and more.
By adding a library of multiplayer games that users can play with their phones, Amazon likely hopes that Prime members will turn to Luna for their next hangout or game night.
โGameNight takes even further the idea of easy access thatโs core to the new Luna, delivering a collection of incredibly fun and approachable games that absolutely shine when played together with friends and family,โ says Jeff Gattis, general manager of Amazon Luna, in a press release. โAnyone with a smartphone can dive right in and have a blast, regardless of their gaming abilities.โ
Luna also includes access to new titles like โHogwarts Legacy,โ โIndiana Jones and the Great Circle,โ โKingdom Come: Deliverance II,โ โTopSpin 2K25,โ and more blockbusters,ย popular classics, and indie games. As before the revamp, these games (and all games outside of the GameNight library) require a controller or mouse and keyboard to play.
Players who want access to a larger library of games can subscribe to Luna Premium, previously called Luna+, for $9.99 a month. Premium includes access to titles like โEA SPORTS FC 25,โ โStar Wars Jedi: Survivor,โ and โBatman: Arkham Knight.โ
