New Gameplay Today – Google Stadia

by Jeff Cork on Nov 18, 2019 at 03:15 PM

Google Stadia launches tomorrow, giving players another way to consume games. The twist here is that Stadia users will be playing games by streaming them online, without having to download anything on their Chromecast devices or browsers. We've seen streaming services before, with varying results. Has Google finally cracked the code? If only there was a new episode of NGT that tried to answer that question...

Think of the November 19 launch as a soft launch. Much of the platform's most-interesting functionality, such as shareable save states, isn't available for people who bought the Founder's Pack. Check out today's episode to see how hot releases like Destiny 2 and Mortal Kombat 11 fare on the tech.
