Netflix is set to revolutionize the gaming world with the launch of a FIFA World Cup video game, exclusively available on its gaming platform in summer 2026. The game, developed and published by Delphi Interactive, will be available to Netflix subscribers and can be played solo or online with friends using only a smartphone. This move marks a significant shift in Netflix’s gaming strategy, as it aims to leverage the massive popularity of the FIFA World Cup to boost its gaming presence.
The game is designed to be fast to learn, thrilling to master, and built for anyone to jump in, making it an ideal experience for casual gamers and football enthusiasts alike. FIFA President Gianni Infantino emphasized that the game aspires “to reach billions of football fans of all ages everywhere in the world,” calling it “a great historic step for FIFA”.
This partnership is a significant comeback for FIFA in the gaming world, following its split from EA Sports in 2022. The game will be available on mobile devices and select TVs, with phones used as controllers, offering a unique gaming experience.
