Amazon is stripping Amazon Luna back to its own catalog, ending third-party game stores, outside subscriptions, and cloud access to linked libraries on June 10, 2026. (amazon.com, tech.yahoo.com) The change started on April 10, when Luna stopped selling individual games and removed the Electronic Arts, Ubisoft, and GOG storefronts from the service. Amazon also stopped selling new Ubisoft+ and Jackbox Games subscriptions through Luna. (tech.yahoo.com, 9to5google.com) Players who already bought games through Luna can keep streaming them only until June 10, 2026. After that, Amazon says those titles will be removed from Luna, though they remain available through the linked native platforms such as Ubisoft Connect, the Electronic Arts app, or GOG Galaxy. (9to5google.com, tech.yahoo.com) Luna’s “Bring Your Own Library” feature worked like a cloud-powered remote shelf: link a store account, and Luna would detect supported PC games you already owned and stream them on phones, Fire TV devices, and browsers. Amazon’s help pages for Ubisoft still describe that setup, including the requirement for a Luna Standard or Luna Premium subscription and a linked Ubisoft account. (amazon.com) That made Luna unusual among subscription game services. It was not just a Netflix-style catalog; it also let people use cloud streaming as a front end for purchases and subscriptions they held somewhere else. (amazon.com, 9to5google.com) Amazon’s current public pitch is narrower. The Luna home and subscription pages now emphasize a rotating library included with Prime, GameNight party games, Fortnite, and Luna Premium at $9.99 a month. (luna.amazon.com, luna.amazon.com, luna.amazon.com) The company has also built tools for the exit. Amazon says players can download save files for games leaving the Luna library through a browser-based settings page, and outside reports say that window lasts 90 days after the June 10 cutoff. (amazon.com, 9to5google.com) Amazon told users in an email that it is “doubling down” on broader gaming experiences and GameNight, according to Yahoo Tech. For Luna customers who treated the service as a cloud access point for games they already owned, the practical deadline is June 10. (tech.yahoo.com)
