Netflix acquires Boss Fight Entertainment, another mobile game studio

Netflix has been done with another game developer, in this case with Boss Fight Entertainment, a mobile studio based in Texas. After this acquisition, we are talking about the third game studio Netflix has acquired in half a yearand it is that the company wants to make its streaming platform a perfect space to gradually enter the streaming gaming market.

The last title developed by this studio was a mobile strategy game called Dungeon Boss; the studio was founded after the closure of Zynga’s Dallas studio, which developed the Facebook game CastleVille.

Since we started offering mobile games to our subscribers around the world just four months ago, we’ve been slowly expanding our portfolio while laying the groundwork for our in-house creative development team. That’s why today we are delighted to announce that Boss Fight Entertainment is becoming part of Netflix.

Boss Fight Entertainment was founded in 2013 by David Rippy (CEO), Bill Jackson (CCO), and Scott Winsett (COO), whose works I have always admired. Thanks to this studio’s extensive experience in creating popular titles across all genres, we’re going to more quickly deliver great games to Netflix subscribers, where they can enjoy them wherever they want.

“Boss Fight’s mission is to provide simple, colorful and fun gaming experiences to our players wherever they want,” stated the founders of Boss Fight Entertainment.

“Netflix’s commitment to offering ad-free games as part of a subscription allows game developers like us to focus on creating fun experiences without worrying about monetization. We couldn’t be happier to be working with Netflix at this early stage as we continue doing what we’re passionate about and helping shape the future of gaming on Netflix.”

The Allen, Texas-based Boss Fight Entertainment team will continue to operate from their studios in Allen, Dallas, Austin, and Seattle, which will also allow us to tap into great creative beyond California.

We are taking the first steps to create great gaming experiences that will be included in your Netflix subscription. By partnering with developers around the world, hiring the best professionals, and acquisitions like this, we aspire to build a world-class video game studio capable of offering a wide variety of original and wildly engaging titles—no ads, no purchases. in the app—to our hundreds of millions of subscribers around the world.
