has always required a Wi-Fi connection to stream and play games, whether you connect through Chrome, the Chromecast Ultra, or on your mobile device. It makes sense. Given the more reliable connection strength of Wi-Fi and hardline connections (if you play on PC or via Chromecast Ultra). It was always suspected though, that Stadia would eventually support the use of a mobile data connection to stream games. And it would appear that time has just about come. A new experimental feature has popped up in the Stadia app on mobile devices that allows you to move beyond the need for a wireless or wired internet connection. Up till now, the only cloud gaming option that has allowed mobile data was. And in player tests it hasn’t exactly been the best experience.
