Of course, getting new titles on cloud gaming services is always nice, and the latest additions to Luna includeMega Man 11andSmite.
The biggest announcements coming out on Thursday, though, include the introduction of the Family Channel, which includes 35 games appropriate for all ages.
These games include titles likeGarfield Kart Furious Racing,Space Otter Charlie, andTransformers: Battlegrounds, as well asSkateBIRD, which is set to arrive later this month.
The other big addition to Luna this month includes Luna Couch, which gives players the ability to enjoy games with others via local cooperative gameplay, as well as multiplayer games.
Users joining you on Luna Couch wont need to have an active Luna account, nor will you gotta be physically located together, according to Amazon.
So, in theory, it’s possible for you to play with a buddy across the country via Amazon Luna, even if they don’t have an account.
It sounds likeAmazon plansto launch the new Family channel as well as the couch mode today, though it may be available at different times depending on your time zone.
Amazon is also offering a free play period for Amazon Prime members in the mainland US starting on September 9 and ending on September 15.
Prime members can play four games on Luna for free, likeResident Evil 7,Metro Exodus, and two others.
