Effective today, Amazon Luna has made sweeping changes to how the cloud gaming service works. Third-party game stores, individual game purchases, Bring Your Own Library, and third-party subscriptions are all gone. If you’ve been using Luna to access your GOG, EA, or Ubisoft libraries in the cloud, that access is going away and you need to know what happens next. For a full picture of where the service stood before today, check out our Amazon Luna review.
Amazon Luna Removes Third-Party Stores Starting April 10, 2026
Amazon has removed the EA, Ubisoft, and GOG storefronts from Luna entirely. A-la-carte game purchases are no longer available as of today. The Bring Your Own Library benefit, which let you stream games you already owned through GOG, EA, and Ubisoft directly on Luna, is ending June 3, 2026. Any games you’d been playing that way won’t be accessible through Luna after that date.
Previously purchased a-la-carte games will remain playable on Luna through June 10, 2026. After that, they’re gone from the service. Amazon isn’t issuing refunds under its standard digital purchases policy, though you can still access those games through the third-party account you had linked at the time of purchase — EA App, GOG Galaxy, or Ubisoft Connect. If you built up a GOG library on Luna, check out our top 10 GOG games on Amazon Luna, those games are still yours through GOG Galaxy.
Ubisoft+ and Jackbox Subscriptions Also Discontinued
Ubisoft+ and Jackbox Games subscriptions sold through Luna are also discontinued. If your subscription was purchased through Luna, it’ll renew one final time after your current billing cycle, then get automatically cancelled. If you want to keep Ubisoft+ access, Amazon recommends signing up directly through Ubisoft’s own storefront. Or, if you purchased your Ubisoft+ subscription directly from Ubisoft, your access on Luna continues through June 10, 2026, and your subscription continues on Ubisoft’s end unaffected.
Save data for affected titles will be downloadable from your Luna Settings page for 90 days after June 10, 2026. Download it sooner rather than later, and test compatibility with whatever platform you’re moving to. As Amazon can’t guarantee your saves will work elsewhere.
Amazon Luna Realigns Around Prime and Premium Subscriptions
The message from Amazon is clear. The official statement says the company is focusing on Prime member value and growing the Luna Premium library. The third-party store model is done. Luna is positioning itself as a subscription-first service built around Luna Premium and the Prime-included Luna Standard tier. For a full breakdown of everything you need to know about the all-new Amazon Luna, check our detailed guide.
If you’ve never used the GOG store or Bring Your Own Library, day-to-day access to Luna Premium’s catalogue is unchanged. For anyone who had built up a library of purchased games or relied on BYOL to stream their existing collection, this is a significant loss.
The GOG partnership launched in March 2024 with a lot of goodwill. The whole selling point was that buying through GOG meant your games would live in your GOG library even if Luna ever shut down. That framing looks different now. Your games are still in GOG Galaxy. The cloud access you paired with them is what’s disappearing.
Subscription Focus Replaces the Third Party Store Model
None of this came out of nowhere. When Amazon announced GameLift Streams in March last year, it raised a clear question about where Luna fit in Amazon’s long-term plans. GameLift Streams gave developers the tools to run their own cloud gaming services without relying on a consumer platform like Luna. Ubisoft was specifically called out as a publisher with every reason to go independent. Ubisoft+ through Luna is now gone. That’s not a coincidence. We covered what Amazon GameLift Streams could mean for Luna’s future back when it was announced. That piece reads very differently today.
Amazon says eligible users will receive a complimentary Luna Premium offer. Details on that will arrive by email on or after June 10, 2026.

OMG! Great article Jon. thank you.
Terrible! I used it so much for game streaming purchases. Very upsetting! But I get it… makes them no money.
This makes me really sad. I haven’t really gotten the chance to try It out. I REALLY hope they don’t go in the duolingo direction (Duolingo is unusable now)
