Netflix recently confirmed that its anticipated movie, The Electric State, will have an associated video game titled The Electric State: Kid Cosmo. This mobile game is intended to be a narrative-driven prequel, elaborating on the film’s expansive universe and expected to release shortly after the movie on March 14, 2025.

With other major media outlets such as Disney and Warner Bros. launching their own streaming platforms, Netflix is positioning itself to attract more subscribers by launching integrated gaming experiences in conjunction with its shows and films. They have previously offered successful titles like World of Goo Remastered and crafted original games for series like Stranger Things.

The reception to this new gaming initiative appears favorable, as many viewers express enthusiasm for engaging with related content in this format, indicating a potential trend towards more interlinked multimedia projects.
