Stadia Controller (new question at end... TIA)

Jump to Best Response

If I buy a game, and then eventually leave Stadia, can I still access access and play it?

Hi @Bazzzer 

you can still access it via the free tier of stadia only and not on any other platform. The only thing you cannot access on free tier is and products from stadia pro. Even if claimed you cannot play these on free tier

Hi @Bazzzer,

What @Moosemaninc said is correct.

I just wanted to expand on "Even if claimed you cannot play these on free tier".

What they meant was games claimed with stadia pro will not be accessed while on the free tier. Once you resubscribe your claimed games will return.

If you later on buy a claimed game that you played while subscribed you will get your save game back as well.

Thanks to you all for your help. The Stadia setup is very confusing to newbies!

I have another question:

I can't work out if I get a Stadia Controller free with my subscription (I already have a Chromecast Ultra).

And...

Is the Stadia Controller worth getting?

TIA

Hey @Bazzzer,

Sorry it's taken a bit for us to get back to you. To answer your question, no the Stadia controller doesn't come with a Stadia Pro subscription. I personally have two Stadia controllers and absolutely love them! They work so well and are great quality. Let us know what you decided to do.

 

Best,

James
