Netflix says it still wants to make a Stranger Things game despite Telltale closure
Following last Friday's news of majority lay-offs at Telltale Games, questions remained regarding the status of the studio's previously announced projects.
Streaming service Netflix has now moved to clear up some of that confusion, confirming that although Telltale is no longer involved in its Stranger Things game, it still hopes to continue the project in some form. It has also revealed that Telltale will complete work on its interactive TV adaptation of Minecraft: Story Mode.
Telltale's partnership with Netflix was announced in June, alongside the news that the collaboration would result in two initial projects. The first was an adaptation of Netflix's 80s-set sci-fi show Stranger Things - which many assumed would utilise Telltales' usual episodic narrative template - and a version of the 2015 Minecraft: Story Mode game, rejigged into 5-episode interactive TV-show-style experience.
