Google makes Stadia Pro free for two months

By Leave a Comment

Google Stadia

In a bid to keep everyone occupied while they are locked and isolated in their homes for weeks, Google today spread some joy by offering its streaming gaming solution for free. For users in 14 countries where Stadia currently works, Stadia Pro has gone free for the next two months. The rollout has started today and all a user needs is a Gmail account to create an account, a free app on Android or iOS and an HID-compliant USB supported controller or mouse and a keyboard.

Having access to the Stadia Pro subscription will allow users to enjoy games like GRID, Destiny 2 and give instant access to seven other games and can even purchase new games on the platform.

However, given the stress on internet traffic these days, Google will keep the default screen resolution at Full HD 1080p instead of 4K, which is a fair trade-off for a two-month free trial.
