Google Stadia, however, is currently the only cloud gaming platform that lets players both purchase games from a digital store and subscribe to \u201cclaim\u201d new monthly added titles with Stadia Pro.<\/p>\n<p>The coolest thing about Stadia\u2019s subscription service is that claimable Stadia Pro games will never leave your library once they\u2019re added. As long as you stay subscribed, you can play them forever, at your own pace, without worrying they\u2019ll be unceremoniously removed. Even if you downgrade to Stadia\u2019s free tier and return to Pro a few months (or years) later, those same claimed games will instantly show back up in your library, along with all saved data.<\/p>\n<p>While new Stadia Pro subscribers can sign up and claim more than 50 games today \u2014 including <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/game\/control\"><em>Control Ultimate Edition<\/em><\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/game\/outriders-game\"><em>Outriders<\/em><\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/game\/saints-row-the-third-remastered\"><em>Saints Row: The Third \u2013 Remastered<\/em><\/a>, and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/game\/saints-row-iv-re-elected\"><em>Saints Row IV: Re-Elected<\/em><\/a> \u2014 players who have been subscribed from the beginning have unbridled access to hundreds of Pro titles with more dropping every month.

It introduced a range of exclusive features that most competing cloud gaming platforms haven\u2019t been able to replicate years later.<\/p>\n<p>The most meaningful of these features is Click to Play. Stadia makes it possible to click on a simple hyperlink and dive directly into a full-featured game \u2014 no downloads, sign-ups, or credit card info required. It\u2019s a magical feature that seems like it shouldn\u2019t be possible, yet you can im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely jump into <em><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/game\/destiny-2\">Destiny 2<\/a><\/em>, <em><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/game\/pubg\">PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS<\/a><\/em>, or <em><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/game\/hitman-free-starter-pack\">HITMAN \u2013 Starter Pack<\/a><\/em> right now. You don\u2019t even need to pair a Bluetooth controller\u00a0to your device, but I recommended it if you have one nearby.<\/p>\n<p>Another great Stadia-exclusive feature is Live Stream. Whereas most game streamers have to use a third-party screencasting tool like OBS to capture and stream game footage on Twitch and YouTube, Stadia comes with this trick built in. Once you get your YouTube account linked up, you can beam live gameplay directly from a Stadia server to your YouTube channel. The only downside is that Live Stream to Youtube doesn\u2019t support webcams, but it does let you attach a mic for full commentary.<\/p>\n<p>Though found in only a small subset of games, there are some other great <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/stadia\/answer\/11144382\">Stadia-exclusive features<\/a> you may come across in your library:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Crowd Choice lets Live Stream viewers choose specific challenges you\u2019ll face in your game.<\/li>\n<li>Crowd Play lets streamers invite viewers to play a game live alongside them.<\/li>\n<li>State Share enables players to share a screenshot of their game with others and then allow those players to dive into that same exact spot in the game to experience it for themselves.<\/li>\n<li>Stream Connect is a co-op feature that gives teammates a live view of each other\u2019s screens so that they can better coordinate attacks against enemies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Stadia_Community\"><\/span>The Stadia Community<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-822936\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Google-Stadia-Controllers-650x366.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Google Stadia Controller Sitting Among Blank Controller and Keyboard Shells\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/stadia.google.com\/\">Google Stadia<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>No gaming brand is worth anything without its players, and for a platform as young and disruptive as Stadia, this group is particularly vital.<\/p>\n<p>Although the Stadia community is relatively small in comparison to those found on PlayStation or Xbox, their size is not to their detriment. Like a small town where everyone knows your name, Twitter hashtags like <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%23TeamStadia&amp;src=typed_query\">#TeamStadia<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%23Stadia100&amp;src=typed_query&amp;f=top\">#Stadia100<\/a>, as well as the official <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Stadia\/\">r\/Stadia subreddit<\/a>, are filled with a family of players who like to share experiences, exchange ideas, advocate for new games, and help one another get the most out of Stadia\u2019s platform.<\/p>\n<p>In short, these players are the heartbeat that keeps Stadia going, even as its longevity is repeatedly called into question.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Ubiquitous_Game_Console\"><\/span>A Ubiquitous Game Console<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-822935\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Google-Stadia-Screens-650x366.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Immortals Fenyx Rising Playing on a Range of Devices\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/stadia.google.com\/\">Google Stadia<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Some Stadia players like to say their Gmail account <em>is<\/em> their console, and while this isn\u2019t exactly accurate, it\u2019s not too far off from the truth.<\/p>\n<p>A simple Google account provides the gateway to getting Stadia up and running. With an estimated 1.5 billion people signed up for Google services, many of them could use it to access games in the cloud, as long as they live in a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/stadia\/answer\/9338852?hl=en\">supported region<\/a>. Simply <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/\">activate Stadia on your account<\/a>, and you\u2019re all set.<\/p>\n<p>As for what device constitutes your \u201cconsole,\u201d it\u2019s likely the one you\u2019re using to read this article. Stadia works on phones, tablets, computers, TVs, and even some smart refrigerators and Teslas. Virtually anything with a Chrome browser can become a Stadia gaming machine. You don\u2019t even technically need to hook up a controller or mouse and keyboard, since all games support touch controls on applicable devices, but these do improve the experience.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Get_Started_With_Stadia_Today\"><\/span>Get Started With Stadia Today<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-822928\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Stadia-Click-to-Play-Destiny-650x366.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Destiny 2 on Google Stadia\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/game\/destiny-2\">Google Stadia<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Google\u2019s made it as easy as possible to start playing games on Stadia. In fact, you don\u2019t even need a Stadia account to access more than 120 free trials and demos. Simply visit the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/games\">official Stadia website<\/a>, find a game that looks good to you, click on it, and dive in.<\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re ready to go a little deeper, use your Google account to activate Stadia\u2019s free tier. You only pay for the games you want to purchase and play when you choose this option. Unlike many of the free tiers you\u2019ll find on competing cloud gaming services, there aren\u2019t any wait times or time limits, either. You get to play as long as you\u2019d like, free of charge.<\/p>\n<p>Then if you want even more out of your Stadia experience, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stadia.google.com\/\">subscribe to Stadia Pro<\/a> for $9.99 per month. Not only do you get the first month free, this tier lets you claim and keep 3-6 new Pro games every month, stream in up to 4K, and listen in 5.1 surround sound. Pro players also get access to regular game sales and free-play weekends where unpurchased games can be enjoyed at no extra cost.<\/p>\n<p>So that\u2019s it \u2014 everything you need to know about Google Stadia.
