Stadia can be used on any PC, laptop, phone etc and includes a Stadia controller which we got to try out at Google I/O this year. The games confirmed at launch so far are Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and Doom Eternal but you would hope that Google have more ready to go if they want Stadia to hit the ground running and have success from the get-go.
It is unclear when Australia will see Stadia, especially with our sub-par NBN thanks to some very shortsighted and pig-headed politicians but given that it will be launching in the US, Canada, UK and Europe first you would hope that Australia is included not long after.
If you love your gaming and want to know more you can check out the live stream from the link below at 2am Friday or you can just check in here when you wake up Friday.
