Google is planning to have its video game streaming service, Google Stadia, go out on trial sometime after it launches.
The skepticism has been rife since the company announced its Stadia venture a few mo﷽nths ago, and folks are understandably unconvi🔥nced. However, they will have the opportunity to get a first-hand look before deciding whether or not Stadia will be worth their time and money. John Justice, Head of Product for Stadia, has confirmed that there will be trials on offer for both the service and the games in the lineup.
“There’s the launch stuff and then there’s OK, what do we want to do next, next𓄧 and next after? And so trials are something that’s high up on the list,” Justice said, via
“We’re just working through what’s the righ🐼t when and how exactly to set it up, and you can imagine how busy things are now just getting ready for launch.”
The trials won't be available immediately after Stadia launches and it will take a few months before potential subscribers get to test things out. But, given that it's not 🐈just the service that's going to be up for thorough examination, it's probably worth the wait.
“I think if you look at our🍰 plan to make as many people be able to try this as possible, you want people, whether they’re already on Stadia, to let the👍m go discover new games, new things, stuff you haven’t tried," Justice added.
“And then also people who - if you haven’t given it a try - we want to let you jump in just as easily as you can. So I think both of those things are trials that we📖 want to support.”
To be honest, there isn't much of a choice he♉re. Google's upcoming service is unlike anything we have out there at the moment and they probably🗹 aren't going to get most people to buy in immediately.
It's still great to get confirmation ﷺfrom the source, though.
Stadia Pro launches on November 19 this year for 🧔persons who pre-ordered the Founder's Edition. The basic version will become🍨 available next year.
