It's been quite some time since we last updated you on the journey of Don't Starve Together coming to mobile platforms, following our initial coverage back in June 2024. We have a mix of news to share today: the disappointing update is that Don't Starve Together will no longer be making its way to Netflix Games. However, the silver lining is that the game is still set to launch on mobile devices for both iOS and Android users.
Playdigious, in collaboration with Klei Entertainment, is diligently working to bring the eerie, Tim Burton-inspired survival game to your fingertips. In Don't Starve Together, you'll find yourself stranded on an island teeming with hostile creatures, playing as a range of quirky characters. Your mission? Gather resources, survive, and most crucially, don't starve.
Originally, Don't Starve Together was poised for an exclusive debut on Netflix Games. However, the game will now be available globally on iOS and Android through Google Play and the iOS App Store. While an exact release date remains under wraps, both Klei Entertainment and Playdigious have assured us that an announcement is on the horizon.
No Netflix for You It appears the anticipated exclusivity deal with Netflix has fallen through. Although it's reassuring to know that Don't Starve Together will still reach a global audience, one can't help but question what this means for Netflix Games' commitment to indie titles. Don't Starve is a renowned franchise and a cornerstone of indie survival games. If such a title can lose its spot, what does it imply for other indie developers?
The shift away from Netflix Games is concerning, especially considering the platform's previously strong support for indie games. To delve deeper into my thoughts on this matter, take a look at my analysis of the launch of Squid Game: Unleashed. In it, I explore why Netflix's increasing focus on its proprietary titles might not bode well for the indie community that has been a significant part of its gaming catalog.
