Stadia will have one last exclusive before closing down next week

One last exclusive for Google Stadia has been launched less than a week before the platform’s demise. Only a few exclusives have ever come to Stadia, and some of them will not be leaving the service before it is shut down.

Google’s soon-to-be-defunct Stadia game streaming service debuted in late 2019 to varying degrees of acclaim. It enabled users to play games streamed online to their devices as Google’s response to the advent of game streaming. It was structured similarly to services like Amazon Luna or Xbox Cloud Gaming, but it never achieved the levels of popularity that were expected of it. Google stated in September that the service would shut down in January 2023 and started processing Stadia refunds shortly after.
