The vast majority of these games are exclusive to their respective channels, which means that to access Luna’s entire catalog of games, you’ll pay $41 per month on top of your Amazon Prime subscription.īut it’s a bit of a retrograde way of thinking about it. There are a few other channels, including the Family Channel for $5.99 a month, the Retro Channel for $4.99 a month, and a Jackbox Games channel for $4.99 a month. (Ubisoft+’s PC-only plan costs slightly less at $14.99.)

Your $17.99 subscription also lets you play locally on PC or stream on Stadia. This channel costs a whopping $17.99 a month, but is not owned by Luna.
The other big channel is reserved for Ubisoft+, which features the studio’s big-name games, including Riders Republic, Far Cry 6: Ultimate Edition, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: Complete Edition, and more. Y features the entire extensive lineup of Microsoft’s own games on launch day. This seems especially damning compared to Xbox Cloud Gaming, which is included with a Game Pass Ultimate subscription. Games like Lost Ark and New World are completely absent from Luna. It costs $9.99 a month and features a catalog of over 120 games, including standouts like Ghostrunner: Complete Edition, Abzu, Control Ultimate Edition, Enter the Gungeon, and Super Mega Baseball 3.Ĭuriously, Amazon Studio’s own games aren’t quite up to the task.
Amazon is clearly thinking of this as a cherry on top of Amazon Prime, rather than the kind of killer feature that would have users doling out $14.99 a month to start subscribing.Īmazon also wants users to buy a la carte “Channels” that house a themed collection of games. At the time of publishing, the group was Steel Assault, Myst, Control, and Garfield Kart.
An earlier group offered Overcooked 2, Mega Man 11, Castlevania Anniversary Collection, and Skatebird. It is a relatively small group, although they rotate periodically. This is as good a games page as there is: it’s robust and useful, and I really enjoyed clicking through, looking at the streamers who were playing each game, and watching some trailers.Īll Amazon Prime members can access a handful of games for free. You can also read a quick Metacritic breakdown and check out more Luna games from the publisher. Tapping on a game gives you options to quickly start playing, add it to a playlist (which works like a collection of your favorites), or browse trailers, screenshots, or even streams that are currently playing. While the games are still packed in carousels and rows, each one features a large, colorful cover. Luna’s mobile app (or browser-based app in the case of iOS) is quite a bit cleaner. From top to bottom, you will see two toolbars not related to Luna, after underneath all of that, you’ll finally get to Luna’s curated content. In a browser, however, the interface is a bit cluttered. There’s a toolbar on the left, featuring buttons for displayed games, the library, games in your playlist, a search function, a “Couch” button (more on that later), a stream button to skip Quickly to Twitch Sessions and Settings. Luna’s storefront features a simplified interface that is primarily navigated by scrolling row after row.
