Geo restrictions for Pro subscibers

Hi Stadia team,

I am wondering if/when you plan to remove geo restrictions for paid users ?

Hey Bartus,

what exactly do you mean by "geo restriction"`? If you mean the ability to play Stadia in all countries... well that always depends on country agreements with Google as well. Otherwise maybe you can explain which restriction you mean?

Lets use Europe as an example, if you're a Pro subsciber in one of the supported countries e.g. UK or Germany and you'd like to take your Stadia for a vacation in one of unsupported counrtries e.g. Poland, Czech, Greece.

Ah yeah makes sense.

Indeed I would appreciate too if it would be possible to play Stadia all over the world, because then it doesn't matter where we are going for holidays, we would always be able to play Stadia.

I do also believe, if this would be possible, Google would not hesitate to make Stadia available everywhere and for everyone (not only for Stadia Pro members). I don't know exactly which obstacles Google need to go through to come to an agreement to be able to offer Stadia in countries, but if it has something to do with government agreements, I believe that might be why Stadia is not available everywhere yet, but it could also depend on internet-abilities within a country. I would guess it's not that easy as we think it must be.

If you have any specific countries in mind, it would be good I guess if you can leave feedback in the Stadia app or on stadia.google.com to make the developers aware in which countries you would love to play Stadia.
