Amazon Luna has been steadily building its reputation as a cloud gaming service, but its latest move feels like a game-changer—literally. With the launch of its new “GameNight” lineup, Luna is leaning into the living room experience in a way that screams Family Game Night. And the best part? It’s included with your Prime membership!
This isn’t just about streaming traditional games to your TV. It’s about creating a new kind of social play—one that blends smartphones, smart TVs, and a lineup of quirky, creative titles designed to get everyone laughing, competing, and connecting.
The headline grabber here is Courtroom Chaos, developed by Death Row Games and published by Amazon Game Studios. Yes, you read that right—Snoop Dogg is front and center in a party game that turns your living room into a courtroom.
It’s a clever mix of improv, courtroom drama, and Snoop’s signature flair—perfect for fans of courtroom TV shows or anyone who loves a good laugh.
The iconic birds are back, but this time they’re bringing the whole flock to your living room.
• Up to 4 players team up to topple piggy-built structures.
• Over 400 levels of slingshot chaos.
• Your phone becomes the slingshot—aim, pull back, and fire.
It’s a familiar formula, but the party twist makes it fresh and endlessly replayable.
Sometimes the simplest ideas are the best. Draw & Guess is exactly what it sounds like, but with the scale turned up.
• Supports up to 16 players.
• One person draws, the rest guess.
• The results? Usually hilarious, sometimes surprisingly artistic.
This one feels like a guaranteed hit for larger gatherings.
GameNight isn’t just about a few headliners—it’s a full buffet of party-ready experiences. Here’s a taste of what’s included:
• Tetris Effect Connected
• Flappy Golf Party
• Bonkies
• Who Wants To Be A Millionaire
• Inverses
• Garfield Kart 2 – All You Can Drift
• Ultimate Chicken Horse
• Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime
• Ticket to Ride
• Clue
• Scattergories Weekly
• Taboo – Official Party Game
• Bullship!
• Big Helmet Heroes
• Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader
• Dunk Dunk
• and More!
From trivia to chaos-driven platformers, there’s something for every type of player.
GameNight also adds a layer of achievement with badges. There are currently 17 to unlock, including:
• First Launch: Play your first GameNight game.
• Pumpkin Posse: Get spooky and play three party games.
It’s a small touch, but it adds that extra incentive to keep the fun going.
Amazon has made the setup refreshingly simple:
- Scan a QR code on your TV.
- Your smartphone instantly becomes your controller.
- Tablets are supported too, making it easy for everyone to join in.
As Amazon puts it:
“With simple and responsive touchscreen inputs and support for multiple local players, GameNight offers an easy and approachable way to play whether you’re an experienced gamer or a casual fan.”
The launch of GameNight feels bigger than just a new feature. It’s a statement. By partnering with Snoop Dogg and Death Row Games, Amazon is opening doors for creators who might not have had access to the industry before. It’s also reimagining what cloud gaming can be—not just a solo experience, but a shared one.
As Jamil Ghani, VP of Worldwide Prime, put it:
“Prime members are going to love GameNight and the reimagined Luna.”
And honestly, he’s right. In a time when entertainment costs are climbing, GameNight offers a fresh, affordable way to bring people together.
If you’re looking for a reason to host a house party, this is it. Throw together a potluck, fire up Luna, and let GameNight turn your living room into the ultimate game hub.
Grab your family, call your friends, and get ready to argue fake cases, topple piggy towers, and laugh until your sides hurt.
Is Amazon Luna taking the lead as the Family Game Night platform?
We believe so. As Blu, put it:
"You can't tell me that Amazon isn't positioning the Luna platform as the place to be for family fun gaming. The TV's right there, Amazon Prime already gives you multiple options, and having the ability to spend quality time together as a family + friends? Priceless! Especially at the top of the holiday season. Other platforms have multiplayer games, but how many people can say they have four controllers? At the same time... many of us have cellphones. You're probably reading this article right now from a phone (What's Up?!)... so to have the ability to simply use your cellphone to get in on the action is smart.
There are plenty of gamers representing console and PC gaming, there's no doubt about that... but you can't deny that there is a casual gamer market that swallows up the hardcore market. To put it simply: Casual > Hardcore, by Billions (according to Game Industry Statistics: Reports 2025). Some of these casual gamers are also hardcore gamers, that collectively make up the 3.4 billion gamers worldwide (as of 2025)... and I'm one of them, so the numbers don't lie. So Amazon is making a smart move bringing casual to the big screen... in a big way. We're here for it. I grew up gathering around the TV with friends and family to game, and that's one of the reasons we promote Family Fun Gaming. With the various challenges people are facing, it's good to have an option that can bring people together for some fun."
