Life is Strange developer Don't Nod is making a narrative game for Netflix

Don't Nod, the studio behind critically acclaimed narrative games like 'Life is Strange', has partnered with Netflix to create a new video game based on a major intellectual property (IP). The Montreal-based developer will helm the project, while the streaming giant will handle publishing. Although no details have been made public about the game's concept or IP source, speculation is running high among gamers and fans of Don't Nod's previous titles.

This latest move marks a significant shift in Netflix's gaming strategy, which has faced criticism over the past year following the closure of its Team Blue studio for AAA game development. The company has since pivoted towards more niche titles, focusing on party games, kid-friendly content, and narrative-driven experiences. The recent leadership changes in 2025 have only added to this shift.

Don't Nod's expertise in crafting emotionally charged, story-driven narratives is well-documented, with its portfolio boasting notable titles like 'Life is Strange', 'Life is Strange 2', 'Tell Me Why', and 'Lost Records'. While the specifics of the new game remain under wraps, it would be a fitting addition to Netflix's growing library of critically acclaimed games, including cult classics such as 'Kentucky Route Zero' and 'Oxenfree'.
 
🤔 I'm surprised they're finally taking gaming seriously. Netflix has been like "oh look, we can do video games too" for years, but this is the first time they've brought in a real developer to back it up. Don't Nod's got some solid credentials under their belt, so fingers crossed the game turns out decent 🤞. It'll be interesting to see how Netflix handles publishing – they're not exactly known for their customer service 🙄.

From Life is Strange to Tell Me Why, they know how to tug at ur heartstrings! 🎮 And let's not forget about Netflix's recent pivot into more niche titles... it's like they're setting themselves up for a masterpiece! 🎨 Can we pls just speculate on what IP they'll be using now?! 🤔 I'm low-key hyped & high-key excited to see what this collab brings!!!
 
Yaaas, this is gonna be huge for Netflix gamers! 🤩 I'm hyped about Don't Nod partnering up with them to create a new game. Their expertise in storytelling is unmatched, and it's only fitting that they're bringing their skills to the Netflix platform. 💻 It's interesting how Netflix has shifted its gaming strategy, focusing on more niche titles, but this partnership could be the key to reviving their reputation as a major player in the AAA game scene. 🌟 I'm curious to see what kind of IP they'll be working with, but given Don't Nod's track record, it's bound to be something special! 🔮 Let's get hyped for this one, folks! #Gaming #Netflix #DonntNod #NewGameAlert
 
idk why they're making this big deal about netflix getting into gaming lol 😂 but if dont nod is behind it idc how good it'll be. i mean, their games are always so emotionally charged i think that's the reason ppl love them 💕 i'm actually hyped to see what they come up with next tho 🤔 maybe it's a game based on some popular ip or something? we'll just have to wait and see 🎮
 
I'm actually kinda surprised they're teaming up with Don't Nod again 🤔. After what happened with Team Blue, I thought Netflix would be more careful about which devs they partner with. But, if it's true that they're going for a narrative-driven game like the ones Don't Nod is known for, then maybe this is a smart move? Their stuff can be super emotional and engaging, so I guess it could work out well in the end... The only thing I'm worried about is how this will affect the other devs on Netflix's roster 🤷‍♂️
 
I'm not super hyped about this collab between Don't Nod and Netflix. I mean, they're a great dev studio and all, but Netflix is still kinda playing it safe with their gaming strategy 🤔. They've been pivoting towards more niche titles, which is cool, but I think they could be pushing the boundaries even more. This game's concept is still under wraps, so we'll just have to wait and see how it plays out. Plus, Don't Nod has already made some amazing narrative-driven games, so I'm not sure if this will be anything new or exciting for them 🎮. Still, I hope it turns out to be a great addition to Netflix's game library! 👍
 
I'm thinking what IP Don't Nod will choose is gonna be huge 🤯. I mean they've already killed it with Life is Strange so I don't see them messing around with some random thing. It's gotta be something with a lot of heart and depth. Maybe even an adaptation from a Netflix show? That would make total sense given their focus on narrative-driven games. What if it's even a game based on a popular Netflix series like Stranger Things or The Umbrella Academy? That would get so much buzz!
 
🤯 Just heard about Don't Nod teaming up with Netflix for a new IP-based game... can't wait to see what they come up with! 🎮 Their storytelling skills are unmatched, if you ask me. I mean, have you played any of their games? 😍 They know how to tug at your heartstrings and make you care about the characters. And now, bringing that expertise to Netflix's gaming platform? Game. Changer. 💥 Plus, it's a great move for Netflix to shift their focus towards more narrative-driven experiences. We've seen what they can do with shows like 'Stranger Things'... imagine what they could do in the world of video games! 📺
 
I'm low-key hyped about this collab! Don't Nod's got a rep for making some of the most emotional & thought-provoking games out there, so I'm expecting something BIG from them 🤯. Netflix is taking a risk by partnering with them on a game based on a major IP, but if anyone can make it work, they're the ones to do it 💪. And let's be real, their portfolio speaks for itself – 'Life is Strange' is still giving me all the feels 5 years later 😭. I'm curious about what kind of game they'll be creating, but either way, I'm here for it 🎮
 
Just saw this news 🤔 and I'm kinda stoked about Don't Nod partnering with Netflix. They're known for their emotional storytelling, which is super underrated in the gaming world. With Netflix's support, they might be able to tackle more ambitious projects that'll appeal to a broader audience. It's also interesting to see how this partnership will shape Netflix's gaming strategy. I'm curious to know what IP they'll be basing the game on - could it be something like 'Stranger Things' or maybe even 'The Witcher'? Either way, with Don't Nod at the helm, I have high hopes for the final product 🎮.
 
🤯 I'm so hyped for this collab! Don't Nod is known for making some seriously emotional games that'll make you laugh and cry, and with Netflix on board, they gotta bring the heat! 🚀💥 Their expertise in storytelling is unmatched, so whatever IP they choose, it's gonna be something special. I'm loving Netflix's new direction too - who needs all those blockbusters when you can have some awesome indie games that'll scratch that gaming itch? 😎 And let's be real, with Don't Nod behind the wheel, this game is guaranteed to be a hit! 🎮👍
 
I'm low-key excited for this collab between Don't Nod and Netflix 🤔. It's like they're finally taking gaming seriously, you know? I mean, they've been churning out some amazing indie titles for years, so it's about time they got the big bucks 💸 to back 'em up.

I'm also hyped that they're shifting their focus towards more narrative-driven games 📚. Netflix has always had a thing for weird, quirky stuff, and Don't Nod is like the ultimate masters of that. I can already imagine some kinda psychological thriller or sci-fi epic that'll keep me on the edge of my seat 😅.

But, let's be real, we've seen plenty of hype around Netflix's gaming plans before 🤷‍♂️. They always seem to overpromise and underdeliver when it comes to actual gameplay mechanics. Fingers crossed they surprise us this time! 👀
 
I'm low-key hyped about this collab between Don't Nod and Netflix 🤩! They're like the ultimate team for narrative-driven games and it's a no-brainer that their next project is gonna be fire 🔥. I mean, we've already seen how well their previous titles have aged (in a good way) and I'm curious to see what they'll bring to the table with Netflix's backing 💸. The fact that they're focusing on party games and kid-friendly content is kinda cool too 🎉, might be interesting to see them take some risks with something different. Fingers crossed for a release date soon! ⏰
 
Yooo 🤔, this collab between Don't Nod and Netflix is a huge deal for gamers! The studio's track record on crafting emotional & engaging stories in their games is unmatched 💯. I'm loving the direction Netflix is taking with its gaming strategy - more focus on niche titles that resonate with fans, rather than trying to tackle AAA blockbusters 🎮. It's about time they gave some love to narrative-driven experiences like Don't Nod's previous hits 📚. Can't wait to see what kind of IP they'll be basing this new game on! 🤔
 
I'm so hyped for this collab between Don't Nod and Netflix, but I gotta say, the lack of info on what IP they're working with is kinda frustrating 🤔. I mean, can we please get some details?! It's been a minute since we heard anything about this project and I'm getting impatient 😬. I'm all for Don't Nod's expertise in crafting emotional narratives, but without any hints or teasers, it's hard to get excited 🎮.

And can Netflix please just stop with the random game closures? Team Blue was a major part of their gaming strategy and now they're just... gone 💔. I know they've pivoted to more niche titles and party games, which is cool, but sometimes I wish they'd focus on bigger, more ambitious projects 🤞.

Still, with Don't Nod at the helm, this game is gonna be lit 🔥. Let's hope it'll be worth the hype 😅.
