Despite the end of Stadia (Rip Little Angel), all is not lost for subscribers. Explanations:
This isn’t new to anyone, but Google will be ending its Cloud Gaming Stadia service in a few days, or January 18th to be precise. If you’ve been a subscriber, it’s necessarily a bit sad to have wasted your time and money “for nothing,” but you won’t go with nothing. That’s at least one consolation.
Google is working on the Stadia Controller
While Google has failed to detail how it will do so, the company said:util in the free servicee “will be released next week”to enable Bluetooth connections on your Stadia Controller“.
We also have some Bluetooth news: next week we’ll be releasing a self-service tool to enable Bluetooth connections on your Stadia Controller. We will share the details here when they are released.
Through the service’s Twitter account, we can learn the matter:
This is very good news for Stadia users, who have probably been wondering what to do with their controllers as they can currently only be used with Stadia and nothing else. On the other hand, Google doesn’t seem to provide an open-source Bluetooth capability.
Ultimate sadness, Google released one final game on Stadia just days before shutting down the service on January 18, and it’s actually one of the first titles ever made for the platform. it is worm game. Google describes the title as an arcade game designed for single and multiplayer. Unfortunately, a game is not saved because after turning off the service you no longer have access to your library at all. We can imagine the dismay of the developers and even the pain of seeing a game come out that was only played by a handful of people for a few hours. The hard law of video games.
Have you been a customer of the Google Stadia service? If so, do you plan to reuse the controller?
