What About Other Devices?
What about Apple lovers? Unfortunately, while the App Store does have a Stadia iOS app, it doesn’t allow you to play games on your device at the moment. That means Apple fans will still have to wait for any kind of gaming support from Google Stadia.
New Games Announced
There was more good news to kick off the year back in January when Google announced that they would bring more than 120 games to Google Stadia’s library this year. That means there should be plenty of games to look forward to this year – as well as the ability to play them on multiple devices.
