Netflix's Gaming Ambitions: 80+ Titles in Development and a Monthly Story Release
Netflix is aggressively expanding its gaming portfolio, with over eighty games currently under development. This follows the recent announcement by co-CEO Gregory K. Peters during an earnings call, revealing that over 100 games have already launched.
The company's strategy centers on leveraging its existing intellectual property (IP). Expect to see games directly tied to popular Netflix series, encouraging viewers to seamlessly transition between watching shows and playing related games.
Another key focus is narrative-driven games, spearheaded by the Netflix Stories hub. Peters confirmed a goal of releasing at least one new Netflix Story game per month, significantly increasing the frequency of releases.
