East Side Games Group, a leading free-to-play mobile game group famous for its enduring player loyalty, has announced that in partnership with Netflix, its Dragon Up mobile game will be available exclusively on the streaming platform in May.
Dragon Up will be a premium version of the narrative-driven game developed on ESGG’s proven Game Kit technology, though this time will feature zero ads, zero in-app purchases and will be included with a Netflix subscription.
Jason Bailey, Chief Executive Officer of ESGG stated, “Netflix has revolutionized the way we consume television and movies, and we’re excited to be a part of their early entry into the mobile game space. Dragon Up couldn’t have found a better home. We’re excited for Netflix members everywhere to enjoy the game and we’re looking forward to bringing exclusive content in future updates!”
What’s up with Dragon Up?
It goes a little something like this:
After an evil wizard has attempted to banish them from their kingdom, one egg is left. The Dragons will need your help in reviving their magic by embarking on an exciting adventure with your pet dragon, Billy. Your mission will be to try and catch as many eggs as you can to save his dragon friends.
Simple.
The game lets you tap your way through the Dragon Kingdom in a colourful, fun and animated idle adventure game. You must try to collect all the dragons and rake in gold coins in ESGG’s typical ‘Idle Game’ style. Once you’ve gathered enough money, you can discover beautiful dragon nests and unlock rare and epic dragons.
You can also unlock new dragon habitats to expand your kingdom. And since dragons love gold (obvs) collecting enough coins will help you feed Billy adequately and watch him grow.
We’ll keep you updated with Netflix further moves in the gaming space as they happen.
