Netflix closes AAA game studio before it ever released a game


With this closure, Netflix proves it’s a real gaming company.

Since then, Blue had brought on a number of game industry veterans with experience working on high profile franchises including Halo and God of War. Though it started with a small handful of hyper-casual mobile games, Netflix’s offerings have expanded to include mobile exclusive ports of iconic games like Grand Theft Auto and Hades its own internally developed exclusives like Cozy Grove: Camp Spirit and Oxenfree II: Lost Signals.
