Press release from Mike Verdu – Vice President of Video Game Development
We love games, whether physical (Floor Is Lava), strategy (The Circle Game), or both (Squid Game). And what we love most is entertaining our customers. That’s why we’re excited to launch the first series of Netflix games on smartphones and tablets around the world. Starting today, all of our customers, wherever they are, can enjoy five mobile games: Stranger Things: 1984, Stranger Things 3: The Game, Shooting Hoops, Card Blast, and Teeter Up. Whether you’re dreaming of a new casual game or an immersive experience where you can immerse yourself in your favorite stories, we want to build a library of games that caters to each of you. This was the start of an amazing gaming experience for us, and we’re excited to share this adventure with you!
Find below all the details to start playing now:
Level 1: Enjoy full access with your Netflix subscription
You just need to subscribe to Netflix. There are no ads, additional fees or in-app purchases. (And don’t believe the Demogorgon if he tells you otherwise!)
Level 2: Available everywhere on Android
Currently you can access our mobile games on Android devices by logging into your Netflix profile:
- Customers using Android smartphones have a dedicated games section and a Games tab where they can select games to download;
- Customers using Android tablets have a dedicated games section, or can select games from the Category drop-down menu.
Can’t find mobile games in the Netflix app?
We’re starting to gradually roll it out to all of our users. If you can’t find it, try again later.
Level 3: Welcome players from around the world!
Our mobile games are available in most of the languages offered on our service. Therefore, they automatically follow the preferences set in your Netflix profile. If the game is not yet available in your language, it will be offered in English.
Level 4: For all profiles in your account
Customers can play on multiple mobile devices with one account. We’ll notify you if you reach your device limit, and you can disconnect unused devices or turn them off remotely on Netflix.com.
Level 5: Reserved for adults
We know how important the safety of the children on our platform is to parents, guardians or anyone looking after children. Therefore, the games we offer are not available in the profile “Young adult“. If you’ve set up a PIN to prevent children from accessing adult profiles, you’ll need to use it to sign in to Netflix and play.
Level 6: No connection? No problem !
Some mobile games require internet connection while others are available offline. Enough to make long trips and stays without network coverage even more entertaining!
Level 7: For all players
Like our series, movies and custom content, we want the games we design to be suitable for all levels and all types of players, from beginners to advanced players.
And this is just the beginning! In the coming months, we’ll continue to improve the mobile gaming experience and expand our entertainment offerings.
So what are you waiting for? Let the party begin!
