Does this scenario work?

Jump to Best Response
If I am signed in to Stadia and playing a game, e.g. Destiny 2, on my Chromebook can someone else in my house play Destiny 2 with me using a controller and Chromecast (if bandwidth allows obviously) or does that require 2 Stadia accounts? Same question again regarding Samurai Shodown: can two people play against each other users 2 controllers hard wired on one device, or on 2 devices, one one account or are 2 required? Is there somewhere I can lookup these answers?

@Visionary If the game supports local multiplayer then you should be able to have multiple controllers connected to the same game session (so I think the Samurai Shodown scenario should work - though I'm not 100% sure if that's been implemented yet). But you can only have one active session per account which would rule out the Destiny 2 scenario.

There is some information in the FAQ:

How many controllers can I use at the same time?
Your Stadia account will support up to four Stadia controllers during local multiplayer game play.

I am a Founder and have redeemed my code to access and create an account on Stadia. Is there a limit on how many compatible devices I can use?
You can play on any compatible device, but you can only have one session active at a time across all your devices.
