Netflix has been working with video game studios for some time, gradually introducing games through their apps and websites. Now, they are diving deeper into the video game industry.
Live adaptations of video games have been a big deal for a couple of years. So, Netflix is now attempting to do the complete opposite: they are making a game based on their hit series “Emily in Paris,” which will definitely be a big deal.
But there is more to this update. They aren’t stopping at a few titles. Netflix has announced a whopping 14 titles for their video game adventure.
They have already invested in some popular mobile titles such as “Netflix Stories: Perfect Match,” “Too Hot to Handle 3,” and even something like “The Ultimatum: Choices.” To attract a wider audience, they aren’t just limiting themselves to dating games but also allowing users to play something as popular as GTA.
These new games will definitely bring some mainstream attention to the OTT platform. In a world where video games and OTT platforms are frequently changing, this move will definitely bring positive limelight to Netflix.
Here is the new gaming lineup for Netflix:
