Netflix is set to expand its gaming portfolio this fall with a diverse lineup of games that cater to various tastes and preferences. The upcoming titles promise to offer ad-free and microtransaction-free experiences, making them highly anticipated among gamers.
Snake.io
Coming to Netflix on August 27th, Snake.io will bring a fresh twist to the classic snake game. This version, first unveiled at Gamescom, will be a multiplayer experience where players eat orbs to grow bigger. The goal is to become large enough to hunt other players or avoid being hunted yourself.
Battleship
Launching on September 10th, Battleship will be an updated take on the classic tabletop game. Players will guess the locations of their opponent’s ships and aim to sink them before their own fleet is destroyed. Netflix promises new tactical depth with special weapons, customizable ship skins, and player avatars.
SpongeBob: Bubble Pop
Set to release on September 17th, SpongeBob: Bubble Pop will be the second major SpongeBob game on Netflix. This arcade puzzle bubble game will have players shooting to match colors, freeing sea snails, and restoring order to Bikini Bottom.
Monument Valley Series
- Monument Valley 1: September 19th
- Monument Valley 2: October 29th

Developed by Ustwo Games, the Monument Valley series is known for its intricate puzzles and optical illusions. The third installment, exclusive to Netflix, will introduce a new protagonist and innovative puzzle navigation methods.
Rollercoaster Tycoon Touch

One of the biggest complaints about Roller Tycoon Touch is how it’s engineered to suck money out of your bank account. Now bound for Netflix Games, we’ll get the definitive and most playable version of this mobile take on the classic theme park sim on both iOS and Android.
Chicken Run: Eggstraction
Following the release of Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget in December 2023, Aardman Animations are collaborating for a new top-down heist game “that combines squad-based infiltration with high-octane, chaotic escapes.” If you want to play the game early, Aardman is currently hunting for beta testers.
Don’t Starve Together
The co-op survival game Don’t Starve Together has been in the wild since 2016 and will soon make its mobile debut via Netflix Games. It’ll join prior mobile entries Don’t Starve: Pocket Edition and Don’t Starve: Shipwrecked: Pocket Edition as paid downloads outside of Netflix. “Enter a strange and unexplored world full of odd creatures, hidden dangers, and ancient secrets. Gather resources to craft items and build structures that match your survival style. Play your way as you unravel the mysteries of “The Constant”. Cooperate with your friends in a private game, or find new friends online. Work with other players to survive the harsh environment, or strike out on your own. Do whatever it takes, but most importantly, Don’t Starve.”
With such a varied lineup, Netflix Games aims to provide something for everyone this fall. Whether you’re into classic board games, intricate puzzles, or high-octane heists, there’s a title that promises hours of entertainment.
