Google Stadia Pro library gets 3 new titles as 6 games leave the platform at start of February

Google Stadia Pro subscribers can now start playing three games added in the catalog at the start of February. However, on the same day, six other titles can no longer be claimed.

What’s new and what left Google Stadia Pro in February 2021?

Google’s paid video game streaming service has gained three new titles this month, namely “Enter the Gungeon,” “Journey to the Savage Planet: Employee of the Month Edition,” and “Lara Croft and the Guardian Light.” Subscribers can now claim these games without additional cost and add them to their library for unlimited access.

However, gamers who have just subscribed to Google Stadia Pro can no longer claim six titles removed from the catalog at the start of February. This list reportedly includes “Hitman 2,” “Sniper Elite 4,” “Hello Neighbor: Hide & Seek,” “The Gardens Between,” “Into the Breach,” and “Panzer Dragoon Remake.”

On the other hand, their membership plan that costs $9.99 per month is still not wasted as the Google Stadia Pro catalog still features some popular titles. Games such as “F1 2020,” “Destiny 2,” and the first “Hitman” can still be added to subscribers’ libraries. Titles that cannot be claimed anymore can still be played by those who had added them before they expired as long as they keep paying their monthly membership fee.

Free Google Stadia is also a good option

Video game fans who are more interested in playing newer titles and are not too keen on paying $10 a month might want to consider signing up for the free version of Google Stadia. The games released here are sold separately. But considering that it lets players access some very popular titles despite not having high-end PCs or gaming consoles, it is worth checking out.

“Cyberpunk 2077,” “Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla,” “Immortals Fenyx Rising,” and “DOOM Eternal” are some of the games that were launched on Google Stadia. Note that buying these games are also possible with a Google Stadia Pro membership.

Google Stadia members can play their bought games through their PCs, laptops, compatible mobile devices, and TVs with the Chromecast Ultra and Stadia Controller. Xbox and PlayStation controllers can also be used when playing on Google Chrome and Android 10 (or later) smartphones through USB and Bluetooth connectivity.

Most of the work in rendering the game on whichever device is used will rely on a stable online connection, so Google Stadia’s minimum internet speed requirement is at 10MB per second. The catch is that Stadia is only available to more than 20 countries right now — the United States, Canada, and European territories.
