Did you know that Netflix has games included with their streaming platform? You didn’t? Well no need to feel too bad, over 99% of Netflix subscribers have never played one of the platform’s many games. That is according to analytics company Apptopia. To give you a little more perspective on that number, Netflix has around 221 million subscribers and its games have only 1.7 million daily players. That is a ridiculous gap but maybe it’s not as surprising as the numbers make it seem.
Despite spending cash on acquiring several well known studios, Netflix does little-to-no marketing for its gaming service. I’m betting several of you reading this still don’t even know how to find the games that are included in your Netflix subscription, or rather your friends subscription that you have the password for. The games are only available on Android or iOS, and they are actually worth checking out. Just sign into the Netflix app on your phone and click the gaming tab to scroll through everything available to you.
While Netflix is not setting any records with its gaming numbers, it may be that the company just isn’t worried about it yet. It continues to develop and add games to its catalog, aiming for 50 by the end of the year. Maybe 2023 is the year that Netflix starts to push its gaming offering more strongly or maybe it will slowly gain an audience from articles like this. Go check it out yourself and add your subscription to that 1% of Netflix gamers.
