Stadia

I’m streaming some of the launch games on Google’s Stadia right now on our Twitch channel. That’s right, we’re streaming some game streaming. Join us in the chat!

Here’s the lineup of games that will be on Google Stadia when it launches next week, including the Tomb Raider trilogy, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, and Red Dead Redemption II. All of these games are sold separately, of course, so it’ll be interesting to see how people react to Google’s ambitious streaming platform.

Google Stadia will launch November 19. The release date was announced at today’s hardware-focused Google event unveiling the Pixel 4 smartphone, which you can read more about on Gizmodo.  

Google will detail the launch of its cloud gaming platform Stadia via a “Stadia Connect” livestream on June 6, including information about new games and, yes, the price. It’ll all start at 9 a.m. Pacific.

“Gaming has always been the backbone of YouTube since it was founded in 2005,” Ryan Wyatt, the head of YouTube gaming, said at the unveiling of Stadia today. Then he flashed a slide of YouTube’s biggest gaming content creators up on the screen. Is it just me or is someone missing?
