This is a one big shocker to start the weekend as yesterday’s afternoon, the official social accounts of Google Stadia became active and practically an unexpected BUT WELCOME good news was shared.
In the Stadia Community Blog, Google shared the following:
“A Gift from the Stadia Team & Bluetooth Controller Functionality Info
Hey there Stadians.You might have seen one last game arrive on Stadia today. It's a humblethanks
Find it here: https://stadia.google.com/game/worm-game
In addition, many of you have expressed the desire to enable Bluetooth on the Stadia controller. We have some good news: next week we'll be releasing a self-serve tool to enable Bluetooth connections on your Stadia Controller. We'll share details next week on how to enable this feature.”
Honestly I lost faith that Stadia and Stadia Controller would have been a thing that Google would just move one including Stadia itself but these are the times I am glad that I was proven wrong.
Expect further instruction next week, probably the very same January 18th, the day of the shutdown of Stadia.
One last game to say goodbye
As you read above, Google is releasing a final game called Worm Game, which is technically not a new game in the sense that this is a technical demo that was developed as an example for developers being offered by Stadia partners back in 2019.
Probably will make a small gameplay video for my content as a goodbye!
