Stadia is Google’s new cloud-based gaming platform that lets you play the latest video games on TVs, laptops, desktops, and select tablets and phones. With Stadia you can buy games that run at up to 1080p/60fps, or play with the Stadia Pro subscription that gives players access to play a selection of games, along with free games to claim each month.
Stadia is still getting some mixed review but people are seeming to enjoy it especially with the free trial they offer.
Stadia is a hell of a lot better than I thought it would be. Works great on PC and the input lag is indistinguishable from a consoles.#stadia @GoogleStadia

Hey @GoogleStadia just wanted to say that thanks to your free trial of pro I was able to test Stadia out on my phone. I was so mind blown that I decided to go the extra mile. I’m excited for the future of Stadia! pic.twitter.com/omHLRTkLFS
