We may not have the service in Australia, but old Stadia has left a bit of a bitter taste in gamer’s mouths. Early adopters have lamented over the platform’s inconsistent performance and Google themselves have forgotten to include the service in their recently relaunched Chromecasts<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The release of easily the year’s biggest game on the ailing platform will hopefully inject some well-needed life back into the service.<\/p>\n

Never shy of pulling the plug on a service, Google may very well walk away from the streaming platform amongst stiff competition from Microsoft’s impressive xCloud service and Amazon’s already feature-rich Luna.<\/p>\n

Regardless, the announcement of CDPR’s launch on the platform is coupled with some new cut-scenes and gameplay. So instead of lamenting the fact our NBN is a donkey and Stadia isn’t even available for us to bitch about, watch them instead. One even has Keanu in it.<\/p>\n
