Netflix is more interested than ever in the world of video games. The streaming platform is preparing two series based around the universe of Far Cry, Splinter Cell and Cuphead.
This series was meant to follow the adventures of the hero Sam Fisher, a former US Navy SEAL commando turned elite operative of NSA’s Echelon 2. The character is an expert at stealth movement and infiltration, and must sneak into shadowy areas in games to complete assigned objectives.
The series is expected to honor these types of sequences while undoubtedly adding new depth to the storyline. The latter is written by Derek Kolstad.
Released in 2017 on PC and Xbox One, Cuphead follows the adventures of two muggles who decide to go to the casino. After playing dice with the devil, they lose their souls. To regain them, they must collect those from different bosses.
The game is inspired by retro cartoons and Walt Disney productions in particular. At the moment, Netflix hasn’t given a release date, merely announcing that it will arrive soon. So patience will be required.

Netflix and Ubisoft Film & Television are expanding their relationship even further. In fact, the Far Cry franchise will also be entitled to two animated series. The series had already been announced in the development phase in 2019, but at that time without an affiliated channel or streaming service..
When details weren’t provided on the former, Netflix has been generous on its spinoff’s side Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix. Inspired by Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon released in 2013 The executive producer describes this new anime as a series “inspired by Saturday morning cartoons, violent video games marketed to children, and pro-wrestling meets cyberpunk dystopia”.
