Netflix Is Bringing These 5 Party Games to a TV Near You
Netflix introduces five multiplayer party games playable on smart TVs using phones as controllers, aiming to boost interactive features and compete with Amazon and Apple gaming services.
- Netflix announced Wednesday that five multiplayer party games for TVs this holiday season include LEGO Party!, Boggle Party, Pictionary: Game Night, Tetris Time Warp and Party Crashers: Fool Your Friends.
- Earlier this year, Netflix signalled a shift from mobile games to cloud-based party games after beta trials that began late 2023 and expanding its catalogue to more than 120 exclusive mobile games.
- To join a game, viewers scroll to the Games tab on their TV, pick a title and connect their smartphones as controllers, with Android users scanning a QR code via Google Play download.
- Starting this week, Netflix subscribers can play games on smart TVs where the feature is live, included with a subscription, though availability varies by subscription tiers and regions.
- This positions Netflix to turn its streaming service into a shared entertainment hub by integrating play and targeting four gaming areas, with updates planned for early 2026 amid cloud beta trials in the UK and Canada.
