According to Polygon, the mobile version of Stadia will enter its initial testing phase this week.
The creation for a progressive web app is a way to avoid the restrictions by Apple on game-streaming apps. Apple is forcing services such as Xbox’s Project xCloud, Google Stadia, and Nvidia’s GeForce Now to provide games to be reviewed before being available on the App Store. With web apps, those companies will not be forced to pay Apple a mandatory 30% tax. Amazon is also working on a web app of its own.
Google also announced a limited-time offer. It’s giving away a free “Stadia Premiere Edition” package (worth $100, which comes with a Stadia controller and a Chromecast Ultra) with the pre-order of Cyberpunk 2077 before December 18. Check out https://stadia.google.com/game/cyberpunk2077 for more info. No Stadia Pro subscription is required for this US$59 purchase.
If you’re going to survive Night City, you’re going to need the right tech. Gear up with Stadia Premiere Edition for free when you pre-order #Cyberpunk2077 on Stadia!

The company also made Destiny 2: New Light free of charge to all Stadia users starting today. Meanwhile, Hitman 3 will become the first Stadia title to make use of its State Share feature, which lets players record and take pictures of their gameplay.
Google today celebrates the first anniversary of Stadia.
