Google just expanded the reach of Stadia in Europe by opening up access to new countries within the region.
When Google launched Stadia last year, it was available in Europe but only in a handful of countries. But today marks the beginning of a larger presence for the cloud gaming solution. Which will inevitably bring Google more subscribers who may have been wanting to try Stadia out for themselves.
So far this year, Google has been doing much work in trying to increase Stadia’s popularity as well as improve its value for the user. Expanding into new territories is certainly one way to do that. Though it’s hardly the only thing Google has done to try and put Stadia in a better position then it was in at launch.
Google is bringing Stadia to 8 new countries in Europe
Starting today, Google will begin rolling out access to Stadia for 8 new countries in Europe.
That brings the total number of countries where you can play games through Stadia to 22. Having been at 14 prior to today’s expansion. The new countries getting access include Austria, Czechia, Hungary, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, and Switzerland.
That being said, Stadia’s Head of EMEA Business Development Samuel Peterson notes that access to Stadia will begin to roll out in these countries within the next 24 hours.
Which means anyone living in the 8 new countries should temper their expectations just a tiny bit. While it might not take long to open up access to all 8 countries, there’s no guarantee that all countries will be able to sign up and start playing at the same time.
Your best bet if you’re interested, is to head to stadia.com and check to see if you can finally test it out.
Try out Stadia Pro for free
With Stadia expanding, new subscribers will be diving into the gaming platform in the very near future.
Worth keeping in mind if you’re one of those people, is that you can try out Stadia Pro for free. Which means you have zero commitment that’s required. Stadia Pro has plenty of free games available right now.
So you can sign up for it, claim any of the games you want, then play them. All at no charge. If you like what you see, you can choose to keep the subscription beyond its trial date. Then even begin dropping some money on purchased titles.
And there’s no better time for it either. Considering Cyberpunk 2077 releases for Stadia this week.
