Every game coming to Amazon’s Luna at launch

By Tom Caswell September 24, 2020

Amazon revealed its new game-streaming service, Luna, on Thursday — as well as a string of AAA games sure to entice avid gamers.

Luna offers different subscriptions (called gaming channels) that players can pick and choose from. At launch, only the Luna+ channel will be available, with a Ubisoft channel coming later. An Amazon rep clarified that players can subscribe to the Ubisoft channel without paying for Luna+, but all games need a subscription of some kind to play.

“No, you cannot buy individual games via Luna, but we’re always looking for ways to make Luna more customer-friendly and look forward to sharing more in the future,” an Amazon spokesperson told Digital Trends.

Here is the entire list of games available during Luna’s early access:

Green Day is celebrating the 30th anniversary of its seminal punk album Dookie by re-releasing tracks, although not in the way you'd think.

The band has partnered with Los Angeles-based art studio Brain for Dookie Demastered, which takes tracks you love and puts them on retro, sometimes completely inaccessible and unplayable, objects. Since this is the Digital Trends gaming section, we're going to talk about how they put Welcome to Paradise on a Game Boy cartridge.

Amazon quietly launched three new Android tablets with a bunch of AI features

amazon quietly launched three new android tablets fire hd 8 2024 render official

When Amazon launches a new tablet, there's usually quite a bit of fanfare. But this time, the retail giant has quietly unveiled out three new Fire HD 8 tablets: the Fire HD 8 (2024), Fire HD 8 Kids, and Fire HD 8 Kids Pro. These might sound like iterative improvements, but don't be fooled, as Amazon has added some serious oomph to these tablets.

The new Fire HD 8 tablets include a writing assistant that's built into the keyboard. Have you ever written something out and thought it lacked a certain pizazz? The assistant will help tighten up your text. The Amazon Silk browser also now has a feature that will summarize we pages so you get the gist of the message without reading the entire story, while another AI tool lets you create custom background images through a text prompt.

2 critically acclaimed indies are coming to Game Pass this month

Sifu's main character at age 70 in Sifu.

Xbox is kicking off October with three new games coming to Game Pass, along with two from the Ultimate tier getting added to the Standard tier, the first time the company has had to make that distinction.

Inscryption and Sifu, two standout indie titles from 2021 and 2022, respectively, are absolutely worth checking out when they hit Game Pass this month. Sifu, coming on October 2, is a third-person beat 'em up with a twist: every time you die, you get resurrected as an older version of yourself. This brings some advantages, like new skills, but your health decreases. Sifu is less about defeating waves of enemies and more about improving as you go, becoming something of a kung fu master.
