Netflix is intensifying its foray into the world of video games by introducing a dedicated controller app for iOS devices. Named the “Netflix Game Controller,” this app permits users to transform their smartphones or tablets into gamepads after pairing their device with a TV. This enables players to engage in games offered through Netflix’s service on their television screen while maintaining control through their mobile device.
Although the app is currently available for download, detailed information is scarce. Key details like the roster of supported games and specifics about the pairing process remain undisclosed. Furthermore, it’s uncertain if and when an Android counterpart will be introduced. The app’s description hints at forthcoming gamepad functionality “coming soon to Netflix.”
