LOS ANGELES — Netflix on Wednesday night unveiled its first games for the TV, as the Los Gatos streamer aims to gain a bigger share of the video game market.

The five games — which include versions of Boggle and Pictionary — are meant to be played on a TV in the same room with family and friends using their phones as controllers and are included in a regular Netflix subscription.

Other titles include LEGO Party!, Tetris Time Warp and social deduction game Party Crashers: Fool Your Friends. The company plans to roll out the games in the U.S. before the holidays.

Netflix co-Chief Executive Greg Peters announced the TV games slate at a Bloomberg Screentime media conference in Hollywood on Wednesday, citing the burgeoning market for gaming.
