Now live as part of the official early fall Prime Day deals and following the announcement of Amazon’s all-new Amazon Luna gaming platform reboot, it is now delivering one of the best prices to date on its Luna Wireless Controller. The official Amazon gamepad typically carries a $70 list price, but Prime members can now land one down at $39.99 shipped

Today’s deal knocks 43% off the $70 list price to deliver the best we can find. This deal lands on par with the lowest we have tracked this year, outside of refurb offers, to match both the July Prime Day discount and the offer we featured for Black Friday last year.

While this is the official Luna wireless gamepad, it is indeed a totally multi-platform affair that works on “Windows, Mac, Fire TV, Fire tablet, iPhone, iPad, Chromebook, and Android devices.” You can even pair it up with a 4K Fire TV Stick and a Game Pass sub to play hundreds of Xbox titles with no console. 

All of the usuals are in place here in terms of controls, including asymmetrical Xbox-style “thumbsticks, easy-access bumpers, precise triggers, responsive action buttons, and a 4-way directional pad.”

While the “completely redesigned and reimagined Amazon Luna” scheduled to launch later this year is, in many ways, highlighted by the new GameNight feature that will see plenty of FREE local party games coming to the service, Amazon also said you can expect an influx of timed, full-on, controller-worthy experiences including the latest Harry Potter game and the, almost surprisingly good, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.

  • BUILT FOR AMAZON LUNA – Designed for the best experience on Luna, Amazon’s cloud gaming service.
