TOKYO -- Amazon is launching a cloud-based gaming service, the company said on Thursday, joining major game publishers like Sony, Microsoft and Google in a move that could intensify the race to create a "Netflix for gaming" business.
Amazon's new service, Luna, will be available in the U.S. for $5.99 a month during its early access phase and will give subscribers over 100 titles to play from its Luna Plus channel. The company aims for a public launch in the first half of 2021.
