The future of Netflix does not only go through series and movies. The company has been able to evolve with great ease in this area, completely disrupting the way we watch television in a few years. All this, with original content that has created a trend, and which reinforces a growing catalog.
In recent years, a multitude of competitors began to appear for the platform. Now, it’s not just a matter of a few players, but each major has their own platform. And not just the majors, some tech companies like Amazon or Apple have also joined the competition. And the streaming war has only just begun.
Now, the company led by Reed Hastings offers a new challenge: video games. After strong rumors about a possible entry into this entertainment sector, a few hours ago, they made it official. All this during a presentation of the results in which they also indicated what will be their first steps.
Next year, Netflix will begin introducing video games into a new section of its catalog. All of this, at the same price which already includes the series and films catalog
For the time being, we don’t have more details on what kind of games will be coming to the platform. Nor if they will be offered in streaming, if they will require downloads, or if they will offer a combination of the two. In any case, we will have to see how they manage to stay in the App Store, since Apple will not allow either case in its store.
So, Netflix is advancing what will be your next level. And if they achieve similar success to that already achieved in recent years, it bodes a bright future for them in the industry.
