Amazon.com Inc is diving into the new and hotly contested market for streaming video games, the company said during a press event on Sept 24 that also revealed a refreshed lineup of Echo smart speakers and a flying home video camera.
Luna, a service that lets gamers play without shelling out for expensive game consoles or games, is Amazon’s biggest foray yet into the fast-growing US$150bil (RM625.20bil) video gaming market. A subscription to the Luna+ channel costs US$5.99 (RM25) a month during an introductory period and will include games such as Resident Evil 7, Control and Panzer Dragoon.
