Amazon Luna Drops Third-Party Stores, Individual Purchases, and External Subscriptions

Amazon has made one of the clearest strategic cuts in cloud gaming this year. On an official support page for customers, the company says that starting April 10, 2026, Amazon Luna will no longer offer game stores, individual game purchases, or third-party subscriptions. The change is not just a storefront cleanup. It removes multiple ways players previously accessed content on Luna and pushes the service toward a narrower model centered on the catalog included with Prime.

The timeline is important. Amazon says a-la-carte purchases are no longer available immediately, but previously purchased titles remain playable through June 10, 2026. After that date, those titles will be removed from Luna. The same June 10 deadline applies to Bring Your Own Library, meaning games previously accessed through that path will stop working on the service. Ubisoft+ and Jackbox Games subscriptions sold through Luna are also being discontinued, with new sign-ups closed and existing subscriptions ending at the close of the next billing cycle.

Amazon frames the move as a focus shift. The support page says the company wants to concentrate on the growing library available to Prime members. That language matters because it suggests Luna is being repositioned less as a flexible cloud hub and more as a bundled Prime feature with fewer storefront layers and fewer account relationships to manage. For users who treated Luna as a way to carry purchases or separate subscriptions into the cloud, that is a real contraction, not a minor policy tweak.

The practical effect is that players now have dates to work against. April 10, 2026 marks the end of new purchases and most third-party buying options, while June 10, 2026 is the harder cutoff for previously purchased titles and Bring Your Own Library play. In a market where cloud gaming services still struggle to define durable habits, Amazon is choosing simplification over breadth. That may make Luna easier for Amazon to run, but it also makes the service meaningfully smaller for the customers who used its more open features.
