- Amazon Luna is dropping game purchases, third-party stores, and Luna-sold Ubisoft Plus and Jackbox subscriptions today.
- Previously purchased and Bring Your Own Library games stay playable on Luna until June 10.
- Amazon says it is simplifying Luna, but affected players are clearly losing options.___
That just sounds dumb. Amazon has been selling digital PC games since 2009 and it’s just about the most bare bones digital PC games store out there. Luna from my testing has great quality but a puny library. For local download and install gaming, it’s barely any more convenient than like itch.io. It’s takes the top spot as the most comically poor run digital games platform across consoles, mobile, pc because they been at it for 17 years while being one of the worlds largest companies all that time that also happens to specialize in both physical goods and digital goods retail. It’s incredible how bad they are at this and how few people actually know that Amazon has been selling digital PC games for 17 years
Stick with 2 day shipping, audiobooks, and tv shows Amazon. Gaming isn’t it for you.
In fact just dissolve all together
What do you even get from a Luna subscription? Just a Amazon-only rental library of games?
I once tried to use Amazon Prime Music and the app ended up being incredibly crappy and the catalog poorly handling artists with the same name. I quit Kindles when I realized Amazon was more out of touch than Microsoft
Didn’t even know it existed until they pulled the plug on their MMO. Didn’t seem to be any marketing for it. After taking a quick glance I could see why, it was pretty… lacking in comparison to competitors. And now they want to strip more away? Just drop the sunsetting theatrics and let it die.
