Netflix is currently working on nearly 90 games, says 'we’re just getting started'

Netflix has revealed its plans for the future of its gaming initiative, confirming it has almost 90 games currently in development.

"It's been just two years since we announced our ambition to make Netflix a destination for must-play games," Netflix's vice president of games, Mike Verdu, wrote in a new blog post. "While we’re still early in the journey, this last year we made foundational strides toward this goal."

Netflix has already launched 40 titles since the start of its shift to video games, which includes Grand Theft Auto Trilogy - The Definitive Edition which is set to arrive on the platform today (December 14), as well as its first two internally developed games, including Night School’s Oxenfree 2: Lost Signals and Netflix Stories: Love is Blind.

In terms of what's next, Netflix says by the year's end it'll have 86 games available on the subscription service and revealed that "with nearly 90 more games in development, we’re just getting started."

The majority of these games haven't been announced just yet, but Netflix did share that four will be launching in 2024. 

Those include Cozy Grove: Camp Spirit, the sequel to life sim Cozy Grove from the company's internal studio Spry Fox, along with FashionVerse, Game Dev Tycoon, and Sonic Mania Plus. 

Also coming to Netflix is a Rebel Moon game based on Zack Snyder's upcoming movie Rebel Moon - Part One: A Child of Fire, which will be developed by Super Evil Megacorp.

There aren't many details to go by yet, but we know it will be a four-player co-op game and will take place after the events of A Child of Fire and Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver.

In addition, a game set in the universe of the popular South Korean series Squid Game has also been announced where users will "compete with other players in games from the hit series."

Netflix's current library of games is available with every Netflix membership without ads, in-app purchases, or extra fees.

Garmin's new radar-equipped tail light will keep you safe on your e-bike

Garmin's Varia bike radars are some of the most popular pieces of cycling tech around – and now the company has delivered its first rearview radar to have been specially designed for some of the best e-Bikes .   Garmin's Varia range mounts to the back of your bike and broadcasts a radar signal behind you, so you can get visual and audible alerts when something's overtaking you. Even better, the new Varia eRTL615 plugs directly into most e-bikes, with no battery required. Because the catchily-named Varia eRTL615 is also a tail light, it'll also make sure you're visible to other vehicles too, promising to emit a flashing or solid light that's visible from up to a mile away in daylight. To connect Garmin's new radar tail light to your e-bike, you'll need to pick the right Garmin adapter cable (which isn't included). You can buy power cables compatible with Bosch, Shimano, or USB-A terminals or connections, with more info on those available on Garmin...

Hackers steal passwords, emails from hookup websites

Two gay hookup websites have been breached with sensitive and personal user data stolen and sold online, new reports have claimed. The databases, which are now being sold on dark web forums, were taken from platforms called TruckerSucker, and CityJerks. They contain enough personally identifiable information to engage in identity theft , such as usernames and passwords, email addresses, profile pictures, sexual preferences, birth dates, postal addresses, IP addresses, and bios. The passwords are encrypted, but according to TechCrunch, the algorithm is “weak” and could be broken by a more persistent hacker. The silent treatment HaveIBeenPwned founder Troy Hunt, who was tipped off on the leak, described the incident as a “typical forum breach, albeit with super sensitive content.”  However the content includes more than just identity data, as there are also messages users exchanged, including arranging meetings and describing their sexual preferences.  In total, more than...
