The worst possible news came out of Netflix this week, as the company announced another round of price hikes for all the Netflix plans. The company is doing it to support its content investments. That’s even though the giant streaming service announced it added nearly 19 million new subscribers in Q4, for a total of 301.63 million paying customers.
During the December 2024 quarter earnings call, Netflix addressed its gaming interests, teasing bigger plans than simply bringing original and licensed video games to subscribers. The company has figured out other ways to keep you glued to your TV on Netflix that involve cloud streaming games.
Netflix will add party and couch co-op games to its lineup, co-CEO Greg Peters said during the Q&A session of the earnings call. This will be the “successor to family board game night,” the exec teased.
