Netflix's gaming ambitions just got a major narrative boost. The streaming giant recently announced that Don't Nod, the acclaimed French studio behind Life is Strange, is developing a game based on a major IP for their platform. What makes this particularly fascinating is that Don't Nod has never previously worked on established brands, a sharp turn that swaps original-IP risk for built-in audiences and proven appeal.
Why now? Netflix has positioned games as one of its three core media offerings alongside movies and TV series, treating interactive entertainment as a core pillar, not a side quest. For Don't Nod, the deal adds strategic stability during a financial reset, letting the studio lean into its storytelling chops while operating inside an IP framework that already resonates with viewers.
