Netflix experiments with expanding gaming service to TV sets
Netflix is planning to launch its video-game service on TVs for the first time — expanding beyond smartphones and tablets — a move seen as a possible step toward a rollout of a cloud-based gaming service.
It could also allow for a wider array of titles and turn Netflix into a competitor to companies like Microsoft, and even providers of non-cloud gaming services such as Apple Arcade, according to reports.— numbers that viewers enter into the search bar to access specific categories that cannot be found through traditional searching — include references to games played on TV sets, indicating that this plan is already in motion, according to the report.
“We’ve made good progress in that time — creating the infrastructure to deliver games to mobile devices, building a portfolio of 50 games across many genres and acquiring four game studios to bolster our internal production capabilities,” the executives wrote. The company’s stock has risen 43% over the past six months, hitting $336.36 per share Thursday morning. Netflix launched its gaming effort on iPhones, iPads and Android devices in 2021, releasing titles such as Into the Dead 2: Unleashed, Stranger Things 3: The Game and Card Blast.
