In The Making Of…, we tell the story behind Weird West, discovering why it sidestepped the immersive sim’s traditional form and carved out its own identity from an overhead perspective.ĭead Island 2 leads this issue’s Play section, followed by other new arrivals including The Last Worker, Deceive Inc, Everspace 2, Have A Nice Death, Terra Nil, Dredge, Paranormasight and Can Of Wormholes. In Time Extend, we fire up Final Fantasy XV once more to consider what went awry with this royal camping trip – but also how its refusal to conform to expectations gives it a distinct flavour that lingers on the palate. In our in-depth examination of the company’s ambitions, including an interview with head of external games Leanne Loombe, you may be able to discover what it was that motivated Joseph Staten to recently jump ship from Halo studio 343 to sign with Netflix as creative director of a triple-A multiplatform project based on a brand-new, original concept.

Another 40 Netflix games are planned for release in 2023, and the company now employs 450 staff and runs six in-house game development studios. Netflix Games has already put its name to 55 releases to date, including the mobile versions of Immortality and Twelve Minutes, but it also has big plans for the future. As that journey approaches its end, we also consider another that is closer to its beginning.
