Party Games and Premium Titles

The social focus of the new Luna is clear:

Play with friends and family using phones as controllers — no extra hardware needed.
New and exclusive games designed for the living room, including adaptations of favorites like "Angry Birds" and "Ticket to Ride."
Hardcore gamers can expand with "Luna Premium," unlocking more top-tier blockbusters for an added fee.

The Future of Prime Gaming

By unifying its gaming benefits under the Luna brand and innovating with cloud- and AI-powered experiences, Amazon aims to appeal to both traditional gamers and newcomers seeking sociable, easy-to-access play. Regular updates and new titles ensure the platform remains fresh, while classic franchise offerings make October an especially rewarding month for Prime members.
