Amazon Luna vs PlayStation Plus Cloud Streaming

Amazon Luna streams cloud games from AWS servers to devices customers already own. Luna Standard is included with eligible Amazon Prime memberships and offers more than 60 games at no additional cost. GameNight provides local multiplayer games; players can use phones as controllers by scanning a TV QR code, and friends can join remotely without an additional subscription. Player limits may vary by game. Luna supports computers, phones, tablets and selected TV devices, including PC, Mac, Chromebook, iPhone, iPad, Android, Fire TV, Fire tablets, Samsung and LG smart TVs, Xumo Stream Box and Xfinity X1 TV Box. Supported browsers include Chrome, Edge and Safari on specified devices, subject to version requirements. Amazon lists a minimum internet speed of 10 Mbps. Most Luna games require a controller or mouse and keyboard; GameNight does not require a dedicated controller. Streaming quality and latency depend on device, location, network, bandwidth and subscription status, and Amazon does not guarantee resolution or quality.

PlayStation Plus Cloud Streaming lets eligible members stream select PS5 games instead of downloading them. Games are drawn from catalogs, digital libraries and select free-to-play titles; cloud saves are stored automatically, and Premium membership includes Game Trials. Streaming requires PlayStation Plus Premium, listed at $19.99 a month, with recurring billing until cancelled. A free-to-play title may be streamable, but the listed facts do not describe a free PlayStation Plus plan. Supported devices include PS5, PlayStation Portal, PS4 and Windows PC, though cloud streaming is identified as available on PS5 and Portal. Portal use requires owning a Portal Remote Player and is limited to select PS5 games, not PS4 or PS3. Listed resolutions range from 720p to 2160p; Premium supports up to 4K, HDR at 60Hz and PS5 audio outputs. Starting a session requires broadband with at least 5 Mbps upload and download. A PlayStation account is required, and child accounts are not eligible.
