Netflix has announced that over 20 games are being removed from the subscription service next month due to licenses expiring.

The details:

  • As spotted by Engadget, several titles will be pulled from the service in July, but the final day that a game will be available varies. First to go is Supergiant’s indie hit Hades, which will leave the platform on July 1, while the majority of games, including Death’s Door, will be unavailable from July 14. The exact dates for each game’s removal can be seen via the Netflix mobile app, with the full list available below.

  • Netflix confirmed the removal in a statement to What’s On Netflix, stating that it is due to licenses expiring. “Just like with series and film, games will be removed from Netflix as licenses expire,” the company said. “Players will notice a “Leaving Soon” badge and be notified by the app itself well in advance of removal.”

  • Some of the titles are, or at least were, exclusive to Netflix, including the mobile port of Hades, which is currently unavailable on the iOS App Store. However, it’s likely that the games will be brought to the App Store, Google Play, and other platforms soon, with Devolver Digital confirming that former exclusive Poinpy, which was removed from Netflix earlier this month, is coming to Steam on July 22.
