Netflix has been on a roll with gaming adaptations. From Resident Evil<\/a> to The Witcher (though that adaption is focused on the books that inspired the games) to Dota and Assassin’s Creed \u2014 it’s been a good time to be a gamer when it comes to the movies and TV streaming app. That being said, reports have begun circulating that the company is doing even more outreach to broaden its gaming scope.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last week,\u00a0The Information<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>broke a news report about Netflix’s further exploration into the realm of gaming adaptations, including gaming veterans telling the site that the company has approached them for possible recruitment. According to the initial report, this venture isn’t just about gaming adaptations but more immersible experiences, as well. Much like the brand did with\u00a0Black Mirror: Bandersnatch,\u00a0<\/em>it looks like bringing established games to the silver screen isn’t the only goal in mind.<\/p>\n

“There are a lot of things that I think people are going to be really surprised by<\/a>,” said one former Netflix employee to\u00a0Game Informer,\u00a0<\/em>who wished to remain anonymous. They mentioned that gaming has been a big interest for Netflix over the last two years but that the focus has honed in more over the course of 2020. We were also told that\u00a0The Circle’s\u00a0<\/em>success has also played a role, the Netflix reality show series that plays heavily into social media themes.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cOur members value the variety and quality of our content. It\u2019s why we\u2019ve continually expanded our offering – from series to documentaries, film, local language originals and reality TV,” a Netflix representative tells\u00a0Game Informer.<\/em>\u00a0“Members also enjoy engaging more directly with stories they love – through interactive shows like Bandersnatch <\/em>and You v. Wild<\/em>, or games based on Stranger Things, La Casa de Papel,\u00a0<\/em>and To All the Boys<\/em>. So we\u2019re excited to do more with interactive entertainment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Going off of the trajectory\u00a0we’ve seen in the last 18 months from Netflix, I would assume that gaming adaptations, reality show aspirations, and more gaming documentaries<\/a> are included in this expansive new venture. It also would be a safe bet to think that some foray into the esports realm is also in the cards, though nothing has been officially confirmed at this time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
