Your TV is what is technically providing game mode, though Stadia can set it automatically for TVs that are compatible with that feature. In short, I do not think it is necessarily a Stadia problem, but rather some other configuration issue.

I would try a few things:

  1. Open Google Home and open the Device Settings for the Chromecast Ultra you are using. Scroll down and enable "Automatically enable game mode" if it is not already enabled.
  2. On your TV, once the input is switched to the Chromecast Ultra, open your TV's settings and enable game mode on the input.
  3. Once you open a game that uses HDR, again open your TV's settings and enable game on the input. This only applies if your TV supports HDR.

A few things could be causing problems, and a big one for many people is that TVs that support HDR and enter HDR mode sometimes have separate settings for HDR. When it switches over, it may drop game mode. My TV does this, and thus for my Chromecast Ultra input, I needed to enable game mode for both HDR and non-HDR.
