Netflix Closes Game Studio in California

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I must say I’m not entirely surprised by Netflix shutting down its game studio. The gaming industry is as volatile as a teenager’s mood swing, and even giants like Netflix aren’t immune to its unpredictable nature.


It appears that another gaming studio, owned by Netflix, has been affected by the closures sweeping through the industry. The Netflix game studio based in Southern California has now closed its doors, having operated for only a short period of about two years following its initial opening.

Netflix Shuts Down Game Studio

In an unpredictable business landscape filled with layoffs and closures, it’s been confirmed that Netflix has closed down its video game development studio, a venture that was established just under two years ago. This studio was launched alongside several other projects by Netflix, as the company has diversified its investments into numerous areas during the past few years.

However, it looks as if gaming might be a bust for the popular streaming service.

Over the past few years, the company has brought on several prominent hires, suggesting they’re gearing up for some cutting-edge gaming equipment and titles in the future. With industry veterans like Joseph Staten among their new recruits, many speculate that Netflix is poised to make a significant impact in the gaming industry.

Currently, it’s been confirmed that Netflix is closing its California studio permanently, which unfortunately means the disbandment of the entire team that had been established there. This information comes directly from a spokesperson at Netflix, as reported by Stephen Totilo from Game File.

What’s Next?

This situation raises a curiosity among many: What’s coming up next for Netflix? Will they persistently advance in the realm of video game development, or are they planning to invest their resources elsewhere instead?

Although shutting down a studio may limit certain opportunities for the company, it’s important to note that Netflix remains one of the biggest streaming platforms available today. It’s unlikely that the closure of just one studio would significantly impact Netflix in the long run.

Will we ever get to know what the Netflix game studio was working on, though?
