Netflix also wants to reinforce its popularity in digital broadcasting through games. Although there are many steps taken by the company for this purpose, it is difficult to say that it was able to achieve the desired success. Still, the streaming platform doesn’t stop working on this feature.
The platform is now trying to pave the way for players to appear on Netflix with their own player names. The information that Netflix has started to test the player names feature for mobile games appears on the internet. In our tests, we confirmed the accuracy of this information (a feature that came to me as well).
Now we can find our friends more easily
If you have ever subscribed to any gaming platform, you know that the platform asks you for a special username. The same will now be true for Netflix. This will open the way for you to be known in a special way.
In this way, when you are going to play a game, it will be easier to invite your friends to the game. So we won’t have to use our profile names on the platform. Since most people choose their own name as their profile name, the chaos that will be experienced will be prevented.
On the screen where you first set your in-game username, “Your in-game username is a unique and public name that is displayed while playing games on Netflix. Your profile icon and name (username) are NOT VISIBLE to others.
You can change your in-game username at any time.” expressions are included.
This feature is mainly for users who play the games offered by the Netflix platform. The arrival of the in-game username may be a sign that the platform will invest much more in the game part in the near future. The platform, which only hosts mobile games yet, may (in its own way) try to rival Steam and Epic Games in the near future.
If the feature is open to you, it is used as follows:
- In our profile, we click on the place where it says create in-game username.
- On the screen that opens, we set our username.
- If the name we have chosen is appropriate, a green tick will appear, otherwise a red cross will appear. We find a name where we can get a green tick.
- We press the save button.
Netflix has been adding games since November last year. The platform’s goal is to add 50 different games by the end of the year.
