Amazon Luna ends third-party game sales
▼ Summary
– Amazon Luna will stop allowing the purchase of third-party games and subscriptions.
– Previously purchased third-party games will be removed from Luna on June 10th, 2026.
– These removed games will remain playable on other platforms via the user’s original publisher account.
– The service is ending support for the EA, Ubisoft, and GOG storefronts.
– Active Ubisoft Plus and Jackbox Games subscriptions bought through Luna will be canceled after the current billing cycle.
A significant shift in strategy is underway at Amazon’s cloud gaming platform. The company has confirmed it will cease all sales of third-party games and related subscriptions through its Luna service. This move fundamentally alters how users will access and purchase content, marking a pivot away from a multi-storefront model. Previously bought titles will be removed from user Luna libraries on June 10th, 2026, though Amazon notes these games remain accessible via their original publisher accounts on other platforms.
The decision directly impacts several major partners. Amazon Luna will no longer support the integrated digital storefronts for EA, Ubisoft, or GOG. Furthermore, the platform is discontinuing its direct management of subscriptions for services like Ubisoft Plus and Jackbox Games. For customers with active memberships purchased through Luna, these will be honored until the current billing cycle concludes, after which they will be automatically canceled. The change signals a streamlining of Luna’s offerings, focusing its resources on a more curated content approach rather than operating as a marketplace for external publishers.
