Amazon Luna is pulling third-party game purchases, no refunds, no recourse. This is what the future of cloud gaming actually looks like.Join us at http://be...

      After June 10, 2026, previously purchased a-la-carte titles will no longer be playable on Luna. However, you can continue to access them directly through the third-party platform account you had linked when you made the purchase on Luna:

      • EA: EA App (https://www.ea.com/ea-app)
      • GOG: GOG Galaxy (https://www.gog.com/galaxy)
      • Ubisoft: Ubisoft Connect (https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/ubisoft-connect)

      Judging by that, it doesn’t look like people will be losing access to the games they purchased. However they will have to access them via a different launcher from June 10th onward.

        This is true but if they purchased it through Luna one would assume they did it because they don’t have a powerful enough PC to run it locally.

        I guess they can migrate to Nvidia GeForce now or another cloud service and still use their purchase.

          This is exactly what I meant by confirming it, it is quite different from what the original poster posted
