"Amazon's Luna cloud gaming service is coming to cable boxes from Comcast and Rogers. The Luna app is already available via web browsers, Fire TV devices, Fire tablets, and many smart TVs from Samsung and LG, and this new expansion will bring the service to "millions" more devices, according to Amazon. Starting Thursday, Luna will be available on "eligible" X1 and Xfinity Xumo Stream Box devices in the US and on the Rogers Xfinity Stream Box in Canada, Amazon says."
"The expansion to Comcast's and Rogers' cable boxes follows Amazon's recent relaunch of the service. A major aspect of the new Luna is "GameNight," a collection of local multiplayer titles you can play using a smartphone as a controller - including one game from Amazon Game Studios starring an AI-powered "Judge Snoop Dogg." Shortly after Amazon's new Luna went live, Amazon announced mass layoffs and "significant" changes to its gaming division, including that it would be ditching MMOs."
