Netflix's Gaming Ambitions: 80+ Games in Development and a Monthly Story Release
Netflix continues to expand its gaming division, boasting over eighty games currently under development. This follows the recent announcement by co-CEO Gregory K. Peters during an earnings call, revealing the platform has already launched over 100 games.
The company's strategy emphasizes leveraging its existing intellectual property (IP). Expect to see several games directly tied to popular Netflix shows, encouraging viewers to seamlessly transition between watching and playing.
Another key focus is narrative-driven games, spearheaded by the Netflix Stories initiative. Peters confirmed a commitment to releasing at least one new Netflix Story game per month, significantly increasing the frequency of releases.
