Netflix is ​​expanding testing of its new video game streaming platform in the US

Netflix has announced that select users in the US can now test its new video game streaming platform for TVs and PCs with compatible browsers, an option that has until now only been available to some testers in the UK and Canada. The company proposed creating a cloud game streaming platform in August 2022, which was known through an advertisement on its official LinkedIn profile, where various vacancies related to this new product were available. It was in August of this year when Netflix began testing the technology for Windows and Mac TVs and PCs in Canada and the UK, with the beta release of Oxenfree and Molehew’s Mining Adventure games. Afterwards, the company commented on its blog that this is the first step it has taken for players to test the experience, with a limited beta for a small number of users in those countries. This new platform option was announced a week after the launch of the Netflix App Controller for iPhone and iPad users, which acts as a video game controller and can be used to play from a TV with a Netflix account signed in. The company has now updated its blog post to announce that it has begun rolling out this limited beta testing to users in the US. With that, he announced that he hopes to hear feedback from these testers and share more information about this streaming platform as it progresses in its development. It is worth noting that users who subscribe to Netflix can play on PC through Netflix.com using a keyboard and mouse, while those who want to do so from the TV can do so from devices such as Amazon Fire TC, Nvidia Shield TV, and Chromecast with Google TV. Roku TVs and Samsung smart models are also supported.
