										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Netflix is currently searching for an executive to look after its expansion into video games. Sources revealed that Netflix is making efforts to grow its business and get into the gaming world as well.</p>
<p>The video gaming industry has benefitted very much due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Hence, the OTT pltform is thinking of making a move towards the sector. A report said that Netflix has approached veteran gaming industries for the job.</p>
<p>Netflix has experimented very much with its streaming programs. It streams movies such as Black Mirror: Bandersnatch and You vs. Wild, where the viewer thinks about the character&#8217;s moves. It has also created games related to the shows like Stranger Things and Money Heist.</p>
<p>The reports earlier said on Friday that it has offered a bunch of games that are similar to the Apple&#8217;s online subscription, Apple Arcade.</p>
