Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has confirmed the developer now includes readying its games for Google’s cloud-based streaming platform, Stadia, as part of its “pipelines”.

When pressed for a comparison between the costs of preparing a game for Stadia in oppose to traditional platforms like console or PC, Guillemot said: “The extra cost to put to make sure the games work well on Stadia is not that high. It’s part now of our pipelines and we have a good relationship with Stadia to make sure it is profitable for us.”
