Netflix Games has been busy building out its catalog of mobile games since November's launch, and even though not every title is a heavy hitter, Netflix Games already offers a handful of quality games, with more coming. Well, as of today, this catalog has grown by one more, and it's a doozy. The indie darling Into the Breach is now available on Android courtesy of Netflix Games, and all you need to play this exceptional mech-based strategy game is an active Netflix account.

The above trailer offers a quick glimpse of what to expect from Into the Breach. It's a turn-based strategy game similar to Advance Wars, Final Fantasy Tactics, and X-Com. Seeing that this is an indie affair, you get pixel graphics that are indeed fitting on a mobile device, making the latest Netflix Games release a must-play for all of you strategy fans out there.

While I've only been able to test the game briefly, I can confirm that bluetooth controllers work. However, corded connections cause the game to crash when booting. I'm not totally sure why controllers connected over USB-C are crashing the game, but you can at least fall back to bluetooth support if you run into this issue.

So yes, Into the Breach is here, something to celebrate for sure since it's considered one of the best indie strategy games out there. The mobile port had a slightly iffy launch in the first few hours where the login system didn't initially work, to the point I was locked out of my account, but thankfully Netflix Games has quickly fixed the issue. While this isn't the first time Netflix has struggled with a game release on the Play Store, at least the company is on top of things for today's important release, though the odd crashing when using a corded controller over USB-C is still an issue to look out for. Still, the game plays great and performs well, so if you'd like to install Into the Breach on your Android device to see for yourself what it's all about, you can snag the download from the Play Store widget below.
