Summary
Netflix is closing Night School and Helsinki-based Moonloot, adding layoffs across its internal games team as it trims its video-game operations.
The company said the cuts are part of organizational changes to sharpen execution and align the business with its current priorities.
Night School, acquired in 2021, released the Netflix-playable horror game "Unhinged" just six weeks ago; Moonloot was founded in 2022.
The move further narrows Netflix's in-house games effort as it leans toward a more focused lineup centered on kids, party, story-driven and mainstream titles.
