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.

The latest Apple TV 4K test lets you watch four sports streams at once

Apple is trying something new with the latest beta version of tvOS 16.5: the option to watch up to four simultaneous streams at once. Right now it's limited to live sports streamed through the Apple TV app on the Apple TV 4K , specifically MLB Friday Night Baseball and the MLS Season Pass. A multi-view option was spotted in the tvOS software last month, but the code was hidden and not enabled. MacRumors reported that the feature would be enabled this weekend, and beta testers have since been able to use it. As yet multi-view hasn't been officially announced by Apple, but it's expected that tvOS 16.5 is going to be pushed out in its final form within the next month or so. WWDC 2023 is around the corner as well, when we should be hearing about the next major updates for Apple's various operating systems – including tvOS 17. How it works Over at 9to5Mac there's a hands-on demonstrating how the multi-view feature works, and it's pretty much as you would expe...

Quantum computers are fast becoming cheaper and smaller — and they could be coming to a data center near you very soon

IonQ claims we’re closer to widespread enterprise quantum computing deployment as it lifted the lid on two rack-mounted models that can be deployed on-premises.   The startup has built the fourth-generation #AQ35 IonQ Forte Enterprise and fifth-generation #AQ64 IonQ Tempo, both of which are designed to be deployed in enterprise and government data centers. It’s also said it is deploying two quantum computers to the US Air Force.  While revealing these two models, IonQ co-founder and CTO Jungsang Kim said quantum computers are already in use by enterprises to churn through machine learning workloads. This, he added, suggests we’re much closer to readily available and affordable machines. Priming enterprises for a quantum future “We believe in the enterprise-grade quantum computing, which is where it can be something of value for enterprises, can happen in the next few years as we build powerful enough quantum computers that can actually do things that classical computers w...

Nvidia RTX 4080 GPU could get cheaper with a new version – but don’t get your hopes up

Nvidia’s RTX 4080 is purportedly getting a new spin on the GPU which could reduce the cost, but any price reduction will likely be very minor, sadly, if it happens at all. Tom’s Hardware flagged up this rumor – and treat it with caution, as with anything from the ever-spinning mill – that originated from HKEPC (a tech site in Hong Kong), claiming that while the current RTX 4080 graphics card is built on the AD103-300 chip, Nvidia is going to use a slightly different GPU in the future, namely AD103-301. There’s now more evidence this is actually happening, Tom’s points out, courtesy of a graphics card maker, Galax, which under its RTX 4080 product details lists the GPU as ‘AD103-300/301’. Furthermore, VideoCardz , which also picked up on this, informs us that Gainward, another card maker, has also listed the updated GPU variant AD103-301 in its product specs. With two separate third-party graphics card makers mentioning this new spin on the GPU in their specs, it seems pret...
