Battle Royale shooter PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS is now available for Stadia. Stadia Pro Account users can download the Pioneer Edition for free, which comes with the game and the Cold Front season pass.
PUBG on Google Stadia is cross-play, and following this link will launch the game immediately for those that are Stadia Pro users. In addition, the Pioneer Edition also comes with a Stadia exclusive skin set.
For fans of role-playing games, Octopath Traveler is now available on Stadia. Originally released on the Nintendo Switch, Octopath Traveler lets you choose to play eight different characters with play-styles and stories.
EA Games Coming to Google Stadia
Another major announcement is a new partnership between Electronic Arts and Google to bring EA games to Stadia. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is set to launch by the end of the year, with blockbuster sports franchises FIFA and Madden following after.
More games are launching as a part of Google’s First on Stadia initiative. The three games on Stadia are Crayta, Get Packed, and Wave Break.
Crayta allows users to create their own multiplayer games and share them with friends. Get Packed brings co-op action as players work to move furniture out of different environments. Wave Break is an arcade-skateboarding game but instead of a skateboard, you ride boats.
Other games coming to Stadia include Zombie Army 4: Dead War, Rock of Ages 3 and Embr. However, psychedelic rhythm game Thumper will leave Stadia Pro at the end of April.
Currently, you can access two months of Stadia Pro membership for free. Even if you don’t purchase any games, you can access the free games that come with the service.
