VP, Games:
It’s been just two years since we announced our ambition to make Netflix a destination for must-play games. While we’re still early in the journey, this last year we made foundational strides toward this goal.
For starters, we:
Launched 40 games. That includes Grand Theft Auto Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, arriving on Netflix tomorrow, as well as titles like Football Manager 24 Mobile and Storyteller, which our members have been loving. We’re committed to building a portfolio with variety and breadth so eventually all of our members can find a game on Netflix they love.
Debuted our first two internally developed games: Night School’s Oxenfree II: Lost Signals, which was recently named one of the year’s best games, and Boss Fight Entertainment’s Netflix Stories: Love is Blind, the first chapter in what will be an ever-growing catalog of interactive fiction based on our beloved series and movies.
Took the first step towards our long-term vision to make games playable on every device by rolling out a test for games on TV and computers in the US, UK and Canada. We’ll continue to roll this experience out to other countries and add new games to test as we go.
Recently updated the games row so it’s more tailored to you. Netflix is all about helping members discover series, films and games that you love. With a more robust games catalog, we’re now curating the mobile games row so it’s most relevant for each member. As we grow our games selection and more members play our games, these recommendations will evolve and improve over time.
By year’s end, we’ll have 86 games available —all included with every Netflix membership without ads, in-app purchases or extra fees. And with nearly 90 more games in development, we’re just getting started.
We can share more today about four of those games, which are coming in 2024, including the sequel to beloved life sim Cozy Grove, from our internal studio Spry Fox, Cozy Grove: Camp Spirit.
