Amazon Luna, Amazon’s cloud-gaming service, added two major AAA titles and a set of party games in September 2026. If you are reading this from Australia, however, there is an important fact upfront: Amazon Luna is not officially available to customers in Australia. This article explains what Luna offers, what is new this month, and the cloud-gaming alternatives actually available to Australian players.
Amazon Luna is not available in Australia
As of September 2026, Amazon Luna operates in 14 countries: the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Spain, Austria, Poland, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Portugal, and Sweden. Australia is not among them. Amazon’s official help page lists no pathway for Australian subscribers to purchase or stream Luna. If you are an Australian player interested in cloud gaming, your verified options are elsewhere—most notably NVIDIA GeForce NOW, which is the AU-available cloud-gaming alternative ReviewGamers covers separately.
This does not mean Luna’s catalogue is invisible to you; it means you cannot subscribe to or stream through the service, and you should not rely on a Luna reference when weighing cloud-gaming options for your own setup.
What Amazon Luna is
Amazon’s service streams AAA games directly to a compatible device—TV, phone, tablet, or browser—without downloading or installing them locally. Subscribers access a rotating library of titles through a Luna+ subscription, or claim certain games free with an Amazon Prime membership. A newer feature, Remote Play, lets invited friends and family join multiplayer sessions even if they do not hold a subscription themselves.
September 2026 additions: Star Wars: Outlaws and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
Luna Standard added two major releases this month:
Star Wars: Outlaws is the first open-world Star Wars game, set between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. The player character, Kay Vess, pursues freedom and a new life by fighting, stealing, and outwitting crime syndicates across the galaxy. The game was developed by Massive Entertainment and published by Ubisoft.
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is a first and third-person action-adventure game set in Pandora’s Western Frontier. The story follows a Na’vi character taken by the RDA (Resources Development Administration) and remade to serve their purposes. Fifteen years later, freed and returned to their homeland, the player finds themselves a stranger. The game was developed by Massive Entertainment and published by Ubisoft.
Both titles are part of Luna’s catalogue for subscribers and Prime members where the service operates.
GameNight party games arrive
Four new titles joined Luna’s GameNight library, which offers asynchronous and local-multiplayer games playable through a browser or on mobile devices:
- King of Tokyo: A kaiju-themed board game where players roll dice and compete to dominate the city.
- It’s Quiz Time: Guinness World Records: A trivia competition using Guinness World Records questions and challenges.
- Bowling Mayhem: A motion-controlled bowling game leveraging device sensors.
- Cranium Planet: A digital adaptation of the classic Cranium party game.
GameNight requires no Luna subscription; Prime members in supported countries can claim these titles as part of membership.
Remote Play for multiplayer
The September update introduced Remote Play, which allows players to invite up to seven friends and family members to join multiplayer games. Invited guests do not need a Prime or Luna+ subscription to participate, and can join from anywhere an internet connection is available.
The broader context
Cloud gaming offers clear advantages: no hardware investment beyond a compatible device and internet speed, no storage limits, and instant access to large catalogues. Luna’s absence from Australia reflects Amazon’s commercial decision and regional infrastructure constraints. For Australian players researching cloud-gaming options, GeForce NOW remains the verified, publicly available alternative. ReviewGamers’ coverage of both services is designed to answer region-specific questions about what is actually accessible to you, not what exists elsewhere.
For Australian readers
If you are considering cloud gaming in Australia, verify your NBN speed against the recommended minimums for your chosen service. Latency and packet loss matter more than raw throughput for real-time games. ReviewGamers can help you understand the performance expectations and alternatives once you have determined which service is available to you.
