“Other Bets” continues to lose money. However, it reported $288 million revenue from $440 million in Q1 of 2022. However, it lost $1.2 billion compared to $835 million (recast) in the same quarter of last year.

I don't wanna bet if that difference of almost $365 million are Stadia alone.

In a follow-up on the aftermath of Google announcing the wind-down and cancellation of Stadia:

*Ubisoft confirmed to The Verge, that all game invested on the Cloud Gaming platform, will be given to players via the Ubisoft Connect and those who started an Ubisoft+ via Stadia will be getting news soon.
*IO Interactive, the developers of the HITMAN latest game series, will be given news soon too.
*Splash Damage, developers for the Stadia-exclusive Outcasters, are sorting out how they can port the game elsewhere (it is rumored that Google still holds the rights and they were also blindsided of Stadia EOL announcement without even let them know before hand as the rest of devs that ported and/or developed games for Stadia).
*Google probably will refund devs that ported games at Stadia & if it happens, Bryant Chappel of The Nerf Report, estimates that the sum of the refunds can go almost $1 billion.

And adding the consumer's refund, End Of Fiscal Year 2023 for Alphabet "Other bets" section will be a hot topic all right.
