Netflix Games has globally released Battleship, in an entirely new adoption of Hasbro’s classic board game. With this game developed by Amsterdam based CoolGames, a subsidiary of Keesing Media Group, Netflix subscribers can now challenge each other and instantly engage in fun naval combat on any mobile device.
Battleship is a real-time multiplayer game with unlimited one-on-one battles. The goal is to locate and destroy the fleet of your opponent, before they sink yours. After developing versions for other game platforms in the past, CoolGames has now brought a next-level Battleship experience to Netflix. Among other things, it features a new League-based progression system, many personalization options and lots of extra content.
“We’re thrilled to bring Battleship to a new audience through our partnership with Netflix,” said Keesing Media CEO Philip Alberdingk Thijm. “This reimagined version of Hasbro’s iconic board game has been designed to offer an exciting, next-level experience for players. By bringing real-time multiplayer battles to Netflix’s vast entertainment platform, we’ve created a seamless and accessible way for subscribers to dive into naval combat, anytime and anywhere.”
“With this release, we’re not only honoring the legacy of Battleship, but also charting a bold new course for interactive gaming.”
For Keesing, this release reflects the larger industry shift toward accessible, on-demand gaming, with major platforms like Netflix leveraging their vast reach to deliver interactive experiences to a global audience. Keesing Media Group is positioned to be a key player in this space, combining its puzzles catalogue and innovative gameplay with convenience and cloud-based technology.
