Amazon Luna, the eCommerce platform’s cloud gaming service, will soon include “Batman: Arkham Knight,” “LEGO DC Super-Villains,” and three more premium games this April.
“With Amazon Luna, we’re making gaming easier and more convenient by offering instant access to console-quality games on devices customers already own,” said Daniel Rausch, vice president of Amazon Entertainment Devices and Services, in an official statement.
This applies to more than those in the United States since Amazon also announced on Wednesday that residents in Canada, the United Kingdom, and Germany now have access to Luna. Meaning to say, they can also play console-quality games on iPhones, iPads, and Macs. Plus, there are even free games for Amazon Prime members.
Media outlets say getting the best games for Amazon’s service has not been easy for them. But this time, some top-notch titles are on the way.
“Batman: Arkham Knight” is the third in the award-winning “Arkham” trilogy by Rocksteady Studios. In the game, Scarecrow has united the super-criminals of Gotham City to destroy Batman. Players play as the Dark Knight as he faces the ultimate threats against his home city that he is sworn to protect.
Based on the DC CComicssuperhero Batman, the game is the successor to the 2013 video game “Batman: Arkham Origins.” It is also a direct sequel to “Batman: Arkham City” and the fourth main installment in the “Batman: Arkham” series.
Also coming to Amazon Luna next month is “LEGO DC Super-Villains.” In the game, the Justice League has disappeared, and players need to uncover the intentions of Earth’s new wannabe superheroes. Of course, villains such as the Joker and Harley Quinn are part of the adventure.
Amazon’s cloud gaming service will also introduce three more titles, including “Batora: Lost Haven,” “Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning,” and “Endzone: A World Apart.”
However, gamers are advised that a $9.99 per month Luna+ subscription is required to play these games.
Luna is a cloud gaming service that allows gamers to play games on devices they already own. These include supported Fire TV, Fire tablets, Windows PC, Chromebook, and Mac devices. They may also play games via web apps on iPhones, iPads, Android devices and select Samsung Smart TVs.
