Multiple screens, one device?

Jump to Best Response

I have a family share account with two children. Are they able to play stadia on different screens (each with its own Chromecast ultra) controlled by one device? Do I need a different device casting to each Chromecast Ultra?

You should be able to start both streams from the same device, as long as you use different accounts to start the game. No one account can play 2 games at once. Instead, you can set up family sharing across your Google Family. For more information on this, check out this article: https://support.google.com/stadia/answer/9575790?hl=en&ref_topic=9495322&dark=1
Alternatively, you can start the game from the Chromecast itself using the controller. Make sure the linking code is toggled on in the Google Home app, turn on your controller, and enter the code on the screen. You may have to sign in.
