As Amazon’s game business crumbles, the public is surprised to discover that it was trying to compete with Steam all this time

On September 30, 2016, Amazon Game Studios introduced its titles Breakaway, Crucible, and New World at TwitchCon. Breakaway's development was halted in 2018 due to poor previews and an unsuccessful open alpha. Crucible was canceled shortly after its launch. While Amazon plans to keep New World operational until at least the end of 2026, it has ceased active development and laid off staff. Former Prime Gaming vice president Ethan Evans noted that Amazon's ambition to disrupt Steam faced challenges, including miscalculations about user habits and a lack of awareness among gamers regarding Amazon's gaming efforts. Amazon is now shifting focus from large-scale productions to more unconventional projects.
