Questions about the service and Stadia in general

Jump to Best Response

I feel this might be a stupid question but, if I buy the Stadia Premiere Edition I get 3 months of pro for free, after that will I both still be able to play the games I could when I had pro and will I still be able to play games with the stadia at all, because it says Stadia Base will be available next year wouldn't that mean id have to wait until the base is out?.



I feel this all is stupid to ask and I'm just missing something somewhere but id rather be safe and ask than be sorry.

Hey @sandwich_king1,

it works like this: You get 3 months Stadia Pro for free, which will be automatically extended, when you don't cancel your Stadia Pro before it ends.

  • If you still want to use Stadia Pro, you profit from discounts for Stadia games, you can claim games for free (apparently 2 each month at the moment) and you can enjoy 4k resolution (apparently not on all games atm) and Dolby Surround 5.1.
  • If you cancel Stadia Pro, you'll be downgraded to Stadia Base next year, which means you can still play your purchased games and use the platform normally, but with less resolution and no Dolby Surround Sound anymore. You'll lose access to all free claimed Stadia Pro games though, but you can get access again to them if you either purchase those games (if available) or get Stadia Pro again.

Hope this makes it a bit more clear for you!

Just want to add an * to the free pro games.  They have said a few times to expect 'roughly' 1 game per months.  So we have 4 pro games currently (2 for November, 2 for December.  And Destiny will probably stay), but I wouldn't expect to see more than one going forward, or at least not the norm.
