Game rights

So I've bought a few games. What happens if stadia loose rights or a gaming developer pulls games from Google. Will we lose the games we purchased? Does this make sense? Like if Google had a deal with Activision and all the sudden Activision breaks ties with Google Stadia do we lose games we purchased created by Activision?

i would imagine that people who have already purchased a game will get to keep it, but it will no longer be available to buy. That is how more tradition services such as steam handle it. It is entirely possible that we lose complete access to it though, but I don't think it's very likely.

This is one of my concerns too. I have bought a few games on Stadia, but I’m a bit hesitant to heavily invest in something that could be deactivated or removed at a moments notice.
