According to a report in You vs. Wild, and collaborated with external developers on projects like Stranger Things 3: The Game, this would represent more than just dipping a toe in the videogame water. Apparently one of the plans being looked at is inspired by Apple Arcade's subscription service, which provides access to games exclusive to the service.

The story may well be accurate, if a statement Netflix sent to Techradar is anything to go by. "Our value the variety and quality of our content", it said. It's why we’ve continually expanded our offering - from series to documentaries, film, local language originals and reality TV. also enjoy engaging more directly with stories they love - through interactive shows like Bandersnatch and You v. Wild, or games based on Stranger Things, La Casa de Papel and To All the Boys. So we’re excited to do more with interactive entertainment."

Netflix's executives do consider Assassin's Creed series. Here's hoping that one turns out better than the movie did.
