In its biggest news toot so far this year, Google has unveiled over a dozen titles heading to its Stadia streaming service in the coming months and beyond, including Octopath Traveler, PUBG, plus a handful of ‘firsts’ yet to grace other platforms. That includes five titles coming as part of a deal with EA, including FIFA and Madden NFL, due to arrive before the end of 2021.
Respawn Entertainment’s Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, FIFA, and Madden NFL will be the first EA titles to arrive on Stadia, with FIFA and Madden scheduled to arrive this “winter”, while Fallen Order carries an even more nebulous launch window of “by the end of this year”. EA says it’ll be bringing two additional, but as yet unannounced, games to Stadia in 2021.
Alongside news of its partnership with EA, Google has announced a total of 13 titles getting the streaming treatment over the next few months. PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds – developer PUBG Corporation’s one-time battle royale darling – is up first and available to play today, supporting cross-platform parties and cross-platform play for those using controllers.
