Update (June 13): Netflix has announced a new Stranger Things mobile game, coming in 2020.

The streaming company previously teased plans to be present at this year's E3 event.

Describing the puzzle role-playing game, Netflix said that players will be able to explore the Upside Down "through location-based mechanics and Google Maps integration" (similar to Pokémon Go). It will launch on iOS and Android.

Also announced was a Stranger Things crossover with Fortnite.

And earlier this week, Nintendo confirmed during its Direct presentation that there will be a Dark Crystal game – called The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Tactics – coming to the Switch in 2019. You can watch a trailer for that below:

Original story (May 14): Netflix may have big plans for video gaming, as the streamer has announced a panel at next month's E3 event.

Known for phenomenally-successful original shows like Stranger Things, House of Cards and Orange Is the New Black, this is relatively alien territory for Netflix, but it'd be unwise to underestimate them.

Back in December, the company confirmed its first foray into the world of video games, which you can see a trailer for below.

But now, in a pretty cool Twitter exchange, Netflix has confirmed its attendance at the upcoming Electric Entertainment Expo – which suggests some huge announcements to come.

Sure! Just to hang or....do you guys have something you want to talk about? — E3 (@E3) May 13, 2019

Below we've got the transcript of how the rest of the conversation went on Twitter.

Netflix: "Definitely want to hang but we also have some gaming news in the works we can talk about. How about a panel?"

E3: "I think we can squeeze you in. What's the panel called?"

Netflix: "How does this sound: 'Bringing Your Favourite Shows to Life: Developing Netflix Originals into Video Games'?"

E3: "Sounds great! Can we get a hint about the games??"

Netflix: "Of course there's the upcoming @Stranger_Things game but hmmmmm... there's definitely more to come!"

E3: "Cool, can't wait! We'll keep checking in with you guys at @NXOnNetflix for updates."

This is not a drill, people. Keep posted for more on this one.
