Netflix Games' Team Blue has been shuttered, with the AAA developer that pulled in talent like former Halo and God of War veterans being closed just a couple of years after it first opened.

Netflix's gaming arm is best known for its indie and mobile titles, but the company recently made a push into AAA by hiring execs from high-profile franchises like Halo, Overwatch and God of War. That strategy may be coming to an end,

The studio, known as Blue, was developing a multiplatform AAA game for an original IP when Netflix shut it down.

From the moment it was announced that Netflix had hired a team of former Blizzard, Bungie and Sony developers to create a AAA game, it felt too likely that little or nothing would come of it. Non-gaming companies deciding to try to grab a slice of the giant pie by spending money to recruit big names often seems to end this way (although Amazon is rather noticeably countering this right now).
