On April 10, 2026, Amazon announced it would end support for individual game purchases and third-party storefront integrations on its Luna cloud gaming platform, revoking cloud streaming access for consumers who had purchased games to play via the service.[1] Effective June 10, 2026, the service removed previously purchased games from its cloud streaming library, though users could still play them on other PC platforms through the accounts used to purchase the titles.[1] Amazon stated it would not offer refunds for third-party games purchased through Luna.[1]
Background
Amazon Luna launched in 2020 as a cloud gaming service competing with Google Stadia and Xbox Cloud Gaming.[1] In 2023, Amazon Luna introduced the ability to purchase individual games through the platform.[1]
Revocation of Third-Party Purchases
Amazon's April 2026 changes prevented players from purchasing third-party games and discontinued subscriptions to third-party services like Ubisoft Plus and Jackbox Games.[1] The platform also eliminated its "Bring Your Own Library" benefit, ending support for EA, Ubisoft, and GOG third-party stores and blocking access to titles from those platforms on Luna after June 3, 2026.[1]
Lack of Refunds
Despite revoking the ability to stream the games via its cloud infrastructure, Amazon refused to offer refunds to users who purchased third-party games through Luna.[1] An Amazon spokesperson stated the service was transitioning away from à la carte purchasing in favor of subscription approaches.[1]
