Google announced Stadia at the annual Game Developer Conference (GDC) 2019, back in March. The Stadia is a cross-platform cloud-gaming service that uses Google’s resources (data centres and networks) to create a game-streaming service that is independent of the platform and provides users with the ability to stream games directly from the cloud to any of their devices including a desktop, laptop, TV, tablet, or smartphone.
At the event, Google said that Stadia would roll out to the US, Canada, UK, and Europe, later this year. It, however, did not reveal any further details about the service. Until now, when it finally announced the availability, pricing, and titles (coming to the platform).
As part of a limited offer, Google is allowing its users to become one of the Stadia ‘founders’ with their first collection of games. The offer is only available for a limited number, so if you happen to be interested, you need to pre-order the Stadia Founder’s Edition from the Google Store, which costs $129.99, right away. Apparently, the Stadia Founder’s Edition is the first way to get Stadia in November, according to Google. And for that price, the pre-order packs nearly $300 of value and includes a Chromecast Ultra, limited-edition Night Blue Stadia Controller, three months of Stadia Pro, three month Buddy Pass to bring one friend along for the ride, and dibs on selecting a Stadia Name.
