Netflix has shut down Netflix Games, its AAA game studio in the US. The closure prompted key staff who had previously worked on games such as Halo, Overwatch, and God of War to leave. The media juggernaut’s focus on smaller game titles is attributed to the studio's closure.

Netflix has reportedly closed its internal game studio in Southern California, which was poised to release a AAA game.

Netflix Games' Team Blue has been shuttered, with the AAA developer that pulled in talent like former Halo and God of War veterans being closed just a couple of years after it first opened.
