The original founders of Bossfight Entertainment, a studio that was acquired and later shut down by Netflix, are relaunching the company as Bossfight.

Announced yesterday, the new studio is headquartered in Dallas, Texas. Leadership includes CEO David Rippy, chief product officer Bill Jackson, and COO Scott Winsett.

"This is about bringing back the team that built Bossfight," Rippy said in the announcement. "We've created and scaled games side-by-side for well over a decade. Reuniting that leadership team under the Bossfight name—and returning to the principles that have guided us from the beginning—is something we're incredibly excited about."

Netflix acquired Bossfight Entertainment back in 2022, months after the streaming giant acquired Oxenfree developer Night School Studio and Finnish studio Next Games, the latter of which cost $72 million.

Three years later, and after launching Squid Game: Unleashed, which hit #1 in 26 countries, Netflix shut down the studio in October of last year. At the time, Rippy described the situation as "rough."

Now, Bossfight is currently working on an unannounced title for PC and mobile platforms. "We intend to maintain a small, lean core team focused on creativity and execution, while leveraging trusted partners to help us scale team size as needed," Winsett said. "That model allows us to stay agile while building games with the production quality players expect."

In January of this year, 26 former Bossfight Entertainment developers formed a new studio called Sunwise Games. At the time, CEO and co-founder Irin Berry said on LinkedIn that the team was "already well into development" of its first title. The team will be unveiling the project during GDC this week.

In other Netflix-related news, the company partnered with FIFA for a new soccer game in December of last year. The news took place amidst rumors of a Warner Bros. Games acquisition, which was seemingly won by Paramount Skydance, as well as Netflix co-CEO Greg Peters explaining that the streamer's video game division will focus on bringing cloud-based titles to television screens in 2026.
