The Twitter handle recently tweeted that Google is likely to discontinue Stadia. While an exact timeline is unknown, it is possible that it may happen before the end of this summer. The corporation is claimed to notify clients 30 to 60 days before Stadia’s closing day and to reimburse the membership cost without any further fees.
— Killed by Google 🌻🇺🇦 (@killedbygoogle) July 28, 2022 The scepticism is understandable: According to a Kotaku(opens in new tab) article from earlier this year, Stadia general manager Phil Harrison issued an email to its colleagues only one week before closing the Stadia Games and Entertainment development studio, applauding the “excellent progress” they were making. At the time, Ogden, a self-proclaimed shitposter, posted simply a popcorn emoji in response to the post. However, that wasn’t enough to keep the myth from causing havoc in the Stadia community, including the official subreddit. To its credit, Google responded to the incident with humour.
Old coworker of mine is now one of the social managers for Google. They had a pretty large seminar in California this past weekend, and long story short you now can play Wavetale at no additional cost on Stadia Pro until August 1: https://t.co/2O6P0Kd8Kd pic.twitter.com/Hjo0pvARKx — Stadia ☁️🎮 (@GoogleStadia) July 29, 2022 However, you should be informed that Google’s plans are sometimes unexpected, and this may alter in the future. We will keep you updated if something similar occurs.
