This was the first time Netflix released a game alongside a TV series from the same franchise. In April, the streamer announced that it would be launching an Exploding Kittens mobile game and animated series based on the well-known card game.

Netflix has acquired three game studios to date, such as Boss Fight Entertainment, maker of Dungeon Boss Night School Studio, known for the supernatural title Oxenfree and Next Games (Stranger Things: Puzzle Tales). There are also original games based on its own properties, including “Stranger Things,” “The Queen’s Gambit” and “Money Heist.” The streamer offers simple games to pass the time, such as Shooting Hoops and Bowling Ballers. Netflix informed TechCrunch that the mobile version contains the same content.

Along with five new squads, 15 achievements, almost 40 new weapons, a dozen missions, and more, the new Advanced Edition also gives users seven new languages - Arabic, Thai, Swedish, Korean, Traditional Chinese, Turkish and Spanish (Latin America). Recently, Into the Breach had an Advanced Edition update on PC, Switch and Stadia. Into the Breach is a tactical strategy game that challenges players to assemble a squad of pilots and mechs and participate in turn-based battles against an alien enemy. The indie hit won best strategy game at the 2018 Game Awards, so it’s no wonder Netflix wanted its hands on the title. It’s likely that Netflix chose Into the Breach because it’s a high-profile, award-winning game. Netflix knows it needs to up its game (pun intended) and improve its mobile game venture to become a strong contender in the market. The mobile version - which is exclusive to the streamer - has been available on the Netflix app since July 19. Into the Breach is also a part of the slate for this month. Netflix launched Mahjong Solitaire on July 26 as well. One game, in particular, called Before Your Eyes, uses eye-tracking technology that progresses the story every time the camera detects that you’re blinking. Netflix released its July slate of mobile games yesterday, adding a range of new titles.
