No headline crash, just a thousand small betrayals over ten years. This is the mechanism behind it. #GamingIndustry #GameDev #LiveService #StudioClosures

Netflix Closes Night School Studio and Moonloot After Strategic Shift
Netflix has announced the closure of its gaming division, Night School Studio, along with another studio, Moonloot, which was reportedly developing an Animal Crossing-like game. The decision comes as part of a strategic shift to prioritize games such as kids titles, party games, and 'mainstream hooks.' This move marks the end of a partnership that began in 2021 when Netflix acquired Night School Studio, known for its critically acclaimed horror game Oxenfree. The closure follows previous setbacks in Netflix's gaming ambitions, including the shutdown of Squid Game creator Boss Fight and the sale of Spry Fox back to its founders. Night School's recent projects, like the Black Mirror companion game Thronglets, showcased creative potential but failed to align with Netflix's new priorities. The decision to close these studios reflects a broader trend of scaling back on ambitious gaming initiatives, raising concerns about the future of innovative game development under Netflix's current strategy.
