Netflix gaming is becoming more of a thing, bringing exclusives and indie darlings.

Netflix first entered the video gaming sphere in 2021. Subscribers could access several genres of games on their iPhone, iPad, or Android device. The list of titles at the time was more-or-less mini-games, unlike the day-one exclusives like Terra Nil and indie darling Before Your Eyes of today.

The shift in bringing more known and internet-popularized games is due to Netflix's new initiatives for the service.

On March 20, the company revealed that 40 more games would come to the platform in 2023 and is working with partners to produce 30 more. In addition, Netflix is making 16 games at its in-house game studio.

"This year we're going to continue building our portfolio — and that means new games every month," said Netflix in the press release.
