Google is all set to launch its ambitious online gaming service – Stadia on November 19. The company claims to offer various AAA gaming titles that can be played on smartphones, notebooks, and computers with just a high-speed internet connection similar to playing a YouTube video.
Though the company has partnered with various studios to add more games, only 22 games will be available on the day of launch due to some technical glitches. Besides, it will also miss some of the features that will be made available on a later date.
Google Stadia is based on the cloud computing concept, where the actual game processing will happen at a data center filled with computers powered by AMD CPUs and GPUs with a peak transfer speed of 484GB/s. The service will launch only in select markets as of now, and there is no information on the launch of this service in India. Unlike a gaming laptop or a console, where the hardware is the most important aspect, Google Stadia needs superfast internet connectivity to get better gaming experience.
As of now, Google Stadia will cost $9.99 per month in select markets like the US and Canada. Plus, there is also a founder’s edition for $129 which comes with a Stadia controller and three months of Stadia Pro subscription.
