A little more than a month after it signaled intentions of jumping into game streaming, Netflix has announced that it will be running a trial of "Netflix Games" for its Polish subscribers. As Tweeted out by the Netflix Geeked Twitter account, Netflix members in Poland will be able to download Stranger Things 3: The Game and Stranger Things: 1984 on their mobile devices for no extra cost.
Along with being included with the price of a standard subscription, players can expect no ads, no in-app purchases, and more games to be added in the future. For the time being, it seems the catalog is limited to titles Netflix has published but may branch out if things go well.
From the looks of the screencaps provided by Netflix, it seems downloading titles will be seamless from the Netflix app. You'll simply select it like any other film and press install. The screens only show support on Android and the original Polish Tweet specifically mentions Google's operating system. There may be restrictions on iOS for the App Store, which would fall in line with everything we've learned from the ongoing Epic Vs Apple legal battle.
It would certainly be a bummer for Apple devices to miss out on this venture, but then everything is currently in the testing phase. A full rollout globally hasn't been announced yet and may not even materialize in 2021. Considering the company doesn't have many games under its belt just yet, that is probably for the best.
