The brand-new feature will include two new games: 'Stranger Things: 1984' and 'Stranger Things 3: The Game.' In addition, the new feature is being offered at no extra cost to the country's Netflix subscribers as the company considers its [mobile gaming platform](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/razer-pc-remote-play) to be in its "very, very early days." In a sense, the release of Netflix gaming in Poland can be viewed as a test run for the company, which hopes to expand its library of games and develop the feature further in the coming months. Regardless, this new release represents the streaming giant's first foray into the world of online video games and, therefore, should not be overlooked. "We view gaming as another new content category for us, similar to our expansion into original films, animation, and unscripted TV," said a Spokesperson from Netflix.
