Netflix games are available to all members on Android |
After initial testing in select markets, Netflix has announced that its first series of exclusive mobile games will be available to all members around the world via Android devices starting this week.
In July, the streaming service confirmed its intention to enter the mobile gaming market. He describes games as another new category of content that the company offers to its subscribers along with movies and TV shows.
Since then, the company has made more and more free games available to its members via the app without ads or payments, including games and casual games based on the popular original TV series "Stranger Things."
The company increased its investment in gaming a while ago. At Game Conference E3 2019, I described a number of game integrations on popular gaming platforms (such as Roblox and Fortnite).
He also plans to market the new game Stranger Things. She then began working with BonusXP game studio to develop Stranger Things: The Game, which was later renamed Stranger Things: 1984 to distinguish it from Stranger Things 3.
When the company started marketing its games in Poland in August, these two games were also the first games to be tested on the platform's Android apps.
In September, Netflix also acquired Night School Studio, an independent game developer known for combo games like Oxenfree, to build its own game library.
The release includes two mobile games, "Stranger Things"
Last month it released three new unofficial games - Shooting Hoops, Teeter Up and Card Blast for users in Spain, Italy and Poland.
This complete collection is now available to all members worldwide via Android. Including two "Stranger Things" and three casual games.
To access the game, the user can click on the New Game tab in the Android Services app which lists the game.
After selecting the game, the user will be directed to the Google Play Store to install it. A Netflix subscription is required to sign in and play the game.
You can play the game at any time by clicking on the game in the service application or on the home screen of your Android device.
In the test, these games are only available to Android smartphone users. But with the global version, members using Android tablets can also use it.
The company announced that it will release downloadable games for iOS users in the coming months. However, it can be more difficult than on Android. The reason for this is the stricter rules in the Apple App Store, which generally prevent apps from hosting other apps and games.
