A few months back, Netflix signaled an active effort to move deeper into the video games market, moving beyond the video game TV series adaptations it has made a regular part of its exclusive content. There has been little word on a move since, but recently, Netflix made a major hire that may mean it’s ready to take the plunge. Former Facebook Gaming executive and gaming industry veteran Mike Verdu is joining Netflix and will be heading up a gaming division at the company immediately.
Netflix announced its hiring of Mike Verdu fairly recently, as reported by Bloomberg. Verdu has years of experience, having worked in an executive capacity at Electronic Arts and Kabam before his tenure at Facebook Gaming. Verdu was VP of augmented reality and virtual reality content before this latest major move. With the move, Verdu will become Netflix’s vice president of game development, working directly under the management of COO Greg Peters.
