Netflix’s attempt to get into the video game space has seen the streaming giant acquiring indie game developer Night School Studio this week.

The company, the first game developer Netflix has acquired to date, developed such titles as “Oxenfree,” “Afterparty” and “Next Stop Nowhere” along with a mobile game set in the world of the TV series “Mr. Robot”.

Night School Studio also confirmed in a statement they will continue to make an “Oxenfree” sequel in addition to new games made with Netflix.
