Amazon Luna is slowly starting to die, killing game purchases & third party subscriptions

While the news is not yet that the service has shut down, that day doesn't seem far off, as Amazon has just announced major changes to its game streaming service Amazon Luna, with support for individual game purchases, third party subscriptions, and the Bring Your Own Library feature all being removed. Until now, Luna was not limited to Amazon’s own subscription catalog, as users could also buy some games directly through Luna and stream titles from linked services such as EA, Ubisoft, and GOG. This this new direction, users can no longer buy individual games on Luna, and any titles previously purchased through the service will remain playable only until June 10, 2026, after which they will be removed from Luna libraries. Amazon also says there will be no refunds for past à-la-carte purchases, and "all sales are final".

Luna is also ending Bring Your Own Library support, including integrations with EA, Ubisoft, and GOG. These features will stop working on June 3, 2026. Players will still keep ownership of games bought through those original storefronts, but they will no longer be able to use Luna to stream them. Affected users will be able to download their Luna save data for 90 days starting June 10, although Amazon warns that compatibility depends on each game and platform. Ubisoft+ and Jackbox Games subscriptions through Luna are also being discontinued, with new subscriptions no longer available and current ones set to be cancelled at the end of the user’s next billing cycle or by June 10, 2026. Amazon says users should manually cancel if they want to avoid one final renewal.

In practice, Luna is moving away from being a more flexible hub for games people already owned or subscribed to elsewhere, and closer to a closed subscription service centered on Amazon’s own catalog, which makes the comparison to the now defunct Google Stadia hard to ignore.
