Amazon Luna is the company’s foray into cloud gaming. The controller is required to stream games to Amazon Fire mobile devices or TVs, as well as a monthly subscription that starts at $ 6 for any Prime member.
Capcom
Resident Evil Village is the latest entry in the long-running Resident Evil franchise and has answered many questions from Resident Evil 7.
The highly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 was released last December, only to face a storm of controversy thanks to a long list of bugs. Months later, many of those purchases have been corrected, and at this price, it’s hard to let this deal go.
