Do you want to play in 4K quality? Subscribe to Stadia Pro. If you want to play Cyberpunk 2077 or FIFA like on the new generation consoles or with the quality of very expensive gaming desktops you just need an internet connection. Use the controls you already have at home, forget about the installations and spend the money on new games instead of expensive graphics cards and hard drive upgrades. Buy the video game and use it on your computer, on your television, on your mobile or on any device with an internet connection where Google is present in one way or another. The premise of Stadia: play what you want where you want. I confess that after the presentation I was genuinely fascinated by that idea. “A video game platform for everyone” that wanted to break the chains of hardware. After a very positive reaction to cloud gaming tests and with technology in its favor, Google made its own cloud gaming alternative official. Interestingly, a year before the pandemic that hit the whole world, including the manufacture of the new PlayStation and Xbox consoles.

The cloud gaming platform that wanted to annihilate the hardware and was overwhelmed in the attemptĮverything goes back to March 19, 2019. But that does not mean that the closure is a sad ending for an initiative that wanted to be revolutionary. Whoever had big plans for Ouya will now have a very exclusive paperweight, while the online titan will allow me to face the January slope and the 2023 releases with more ease than expected.

The big difference between the closure of Stadia and other well-known falls in the video game industry is how Google wants to close things. Which, added, leaves me with another clear reading: the consequences of the server blackout are devastating, but it is paradoxical that that revolutionary cloud gaming platform that wanted to annihilate the hardware was overwhelmed by an even more bizarre reality: the absolute shortage of graphics cards and the absurd distribution of new generation consoles due to high demand and manufacturing and distribution problems. That the new Chromecast models were not compatible a year after their launch was also an unmistakable sign. However, the news does not catch us new nor is it a jug of cold water: the Stadia project began to falter and put nails in its own coffin since the closure of Stadia Games and Entertainment. It was his first exclusive! This year the people of Madrid have yet to release Song of Nunu, so sooner or later we’ll hear from them. I sincerely hope that GYLT finds a new home: barring a surprise announcement, once Stadia shuts down servers, the Tequila Works game will be gone forever.

And the disbursement will not be a problem: except for the price of the Stadia Pro subscription (optional to play) Google will return everything I paid.Īnd yet, losing my game of Celeste or Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night devastates me. Because, for one thing or another, they are games that I dedicated their good hours to Stadia, I also ended up playing on other systems. I can get back on my feet and my own milestones in Resident Evil 7 biohazard Gold Edition and Metro Exodus simply by purchasing their respective DLCs elsewhere. Within days Superhot, which I first tried on Stadia, is added to PS Plus.

I know that I should feel anger or rage for losing what I have achieved and bought, but it is that most of the games that I have been playing (The Elders Scrolls Online, Overcooked! All You Can Eat, Control Ultimate Edition or Moonlighter) I have them one way or another on Xbox Series X or Nintendo Switch.

The feeling I have is one of genuine sorrow. The sentence is pronounced: Google Stadia Chapa. On January 18, 2023, all those titles, like the great moments and progress made in them, will vanish like tears in the rain. If I add those of the service are 171 Video Games, nothing less. I don’t play as much as I wanted to, but I have an impressive library of games there. What’s more, since Google started this adventure I’ve always been a Stadia Pro subscriber. I have said it about a thousand times to my colleagues at VidaExtra and at least a dozen I have written it down.
