“Netflix’s decision to provide free games that are ad-free as part of subscribers allows game creators like us to concentrate on making fun games without worrying about the monetization.
We couldn’t be more pleased to be a part of Netflix in this very early stage in our pursuit of the things we love and help shape how games will play with Netflix all together.” the company said.
Netflix has confirmed in July of last year that it would improve their mobile gaming experiences in order to offer its customers more value.
Since then, the company has been hard at work to build its own studio as well as buying third-party gaming developers on mobile.
Netflix’s vice president of game studios Amir Rahimi said, “We’re still in the initial stages of creating great gaming experiences for you as an element of the Netflix account.”
“Through collaborations with game developers across the globe and bringing on top talent and acquisitions such as this, we’re hoping to create a world-class gaming studio capable of providing an array of exciting and deeply enjoyable original games – without advertisements and no in-app purchases for our millions of subscribers across the globe,” he added.
The company claims that it is viewing the gaming industry as a brand new content category , similar to its previous films, animations, and television categories that are not scripted.
The games the platform can offer are available to users without cost to their subscribers.
