Amazon Puts Luna Video Game Titles On Fire TV For Prime Members

Amazon said Thursday it is making its Luna video game offering available at no extra charge to Prime members on Fire TV in the U.S. and UK.

Last year, Luna game streams re-launched as part of a “rethink” of Amazon’s approach to gaming. “Some of the most magical moments in gaming are when you’re playing with family and friends in the living room on the big screen,” the company noted at the time.

While billions of people play games, only a few hundred million own a console or a PC equipped for gaming. Luna titles are games “you can play in seconds, as easy to find as the shows and movies you already watch, and on devices you already own,” the tech company said Thursday in a blog post.

As part of the initiative, a “Games” tab will be added to the user interface as part of the goal of making discovery easier.

“For a lot of people, games have been harder to find than they should be,” said Jeff Gattis, GM of Gaming at Amazon. “Bringing Luna inside Prime Video allows Prime members to discover games more naturally, and if they see one they like, they click it and they’re in. That’s less time searching and more time playing great games included with their Prime membership.”

On Luna, Prime members will get access to familiar titles like Hogwarts Legacy, EA Sports FC 26, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Also included are GameNight party games like Clue, Ticket to Ride, and Taboo you can jump into with friends and family. New games will be added on a monthly basis.

Layering games on top of series or films is another objective. A video game accompanying the recent Masters of the Universe film from Amazon MGM Studios is available via the outlet, for example. In other sync-up, AI party game Courtroom Chaos: Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger is streaming ahead of Prime Video holiday movie release The Man with the Bag.
