Netflix is working on features that will allow members to play its mobile games with one another and compete on gaming leaderboards.
Starting last month, the company quietly introduced the ability for users to create unique “game handles” in a subset of its mobile games, including Into The Breach, Bowling Ballers, Mahjong Solitaire, and Heads Up! Furthermore, references discovered in the Netflix app point to expanded gaming ambitions, such as the ability to invite other users to play games with you and a feature that would allow you to see your ranking on leaderboards, among other things. In a statement provided to TechCrunch, the company confirmed it is investigating various gaming features, but couldn’t say which features, other than game handles, would be publicly rolled out to users or when that would happen.
