Last month Netflix revealed at their huge Geeked Week event a variety of exciting new titles coming to their Netflix Games service. Among them was Acid Nerve and Devolver Digital’s critically acclaimed action RPG Death’s Door, and without much warning, that title is now live in the Netflix Games library and available on mobile. Death’s Door has been likened to games like The Legend of Zelda for its exploration and puzzles, with a touch of Dark Souls thrown in for its challenging boss battles and combat. Those are two comparisons you don’t want to make lightly, but Death’s Door seems to be able to back it up based on how well-received it has been on previous platforms. Check out the new trailer showcasing the newly-released Netflix version.
Death’s Door originally launched on PC and consoles in July 2021, with a Nintendo Switch version arriving the following November. Our own Mikhail Madnani has played it on both the Steam Deck and Switch and thoroughly enjoyed it, while our own Shaun Musgrave also praised the Switch version in his 2021 review, giving the game 4.5 out of 5 stars. This is one of those ports I get excited about coming to mobile, since I’ll actually have time to play and enjoy it here, whereas on PC it would likely get lost in my backlog. So far, I’m loving this mobile version and it seems to play just fine with virtual controls, which are fully customizable, as well as with my Backbone controller. If you have Netflix, there’s no reason not to pick up Death’s Door right away.
