While the company didn't divulge many details on its upcoming games, it did announce that the popular mobile puzzle games "Monument Valley 1" and "Monument Valley 2" will be coming to Netflix in 2024. Additionally, the streaming platform teased the next game in its three-game deal with Ubisoft UBSFF, "Mighty Quest: Rogue Palace," which will be released on April 18.

Netflix also revealed that a new game based on the reality dating show "Too Hot to Handle" will be released later this year alongside a new season of the show.

During the press event, Netflix refrained from sharing any specific figures regarding the performance of its gaming platform among its subscribers. Leanne Loombe, the Vice President of External Games at Netflix, dodged the question and mentioned that the company is "very happy with the progress so far" in terms of user growth.

However, it's worth noting that, in August of last year, the number of Netflix subscribers engaging with the platform's games regularly was below 1%, according to CNBC.
