Netflix formed an internal studio (codename Blue) that was meant to make a AAA multiplatform game based on an original IP. It is now dead.

Oh yeah, didn't they pull the Stranger Things rights from DBD in order to use them for this... and then gave them back after releasing two Stranger Things games known only as "Jack" and "Shit"

Never welcome news to hear studios closing down :(

I don't care, I thought Zero Games was awesome. You can do almost anything you want in it, the ultimate sandbox game. Vastly underrated.

I can admire their initiative of funding small games like Poinpy but Netflix backing a AAA studio always seemed like an impossible thing to me, they seem way too risk averse to spend millions into an unproven team and a new IP.
