Netflix continues to be in the news headlines with its games, as well as its sensational series. Netflix, which released its first mobile games on November 3, has made a new statement about which platform it will add its games to iOS devices. According to the latest information, Netflix’s games will be added through the App Store on iOS devices. Android users can now access the games from the Netflix mobile app.
Apple’s current App Store rules prevent Netflix games from being accessed directly through the mobile app. The reason for this is that downloading games through ‘third-party’ applications is not allowed. Although Netflix does not currently offer the option to download games to the phone, if this happens, it falls under the bans of the App Store. For this reason, the games will be added through the App Store, not the Netflix mobile app.
Could it be an advantage for Apple?
An argument made by experts is that installing games through the App Store may reduce the success of Netflix’s application in the field of gaming. The reason for this is that users prefer platforms that are ‘all in one’. For this reason, it is a matter of curiosity whether Apple, which is also seen as Netflix’s rival in this field, will make a change in the App Store rules.
Five different games released by Netflix are currently only available on mobile Android devices. Discussions continue when the games that can be accessed simultaneously from separate devices will also be available on platforms such as PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Mac. But it is anticipated that this will not happen in the near future.
