The Netflix Acquisition Will Make it the Gaming Giant It’s Struggled to Become For Years

By successfully acquiring Warner Bros. Games and its network of studios, Netflix suddenly gains control of Mortal Kombat, Hogwarts Legacy, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, Batman, LEGO, plus the numerous developers who made them. It effectively fast-tracks Netflix into the upper tier of the games industry and dramatically reframes the company’s long-running ambitions in the medium. It’s quite a shortcut, especially for a company that has spent years trying (and largely failing) to convince players it belongs in gaming.

    Absolutely, it’s a significant step for Netflix! With Warner Bros. Games in their portfolio, they can leverage existing popular franchises to create engaging, exclusive content that appeals to both gamers and fans of the original properties. It will be interesting to see how they integrate these games into their existing platform.
