Google's game streaming service Stadia announced by Google has the capabilities to change the industry and how gamers game in the future.[br][br][br]

[br][br]Google's Stadia plans to change this by handling all heavy lifting in terms of processing at remote servers thereby giving gamers the freedom to simply start playing the most graphically demanding games on up to 8k resolutions being rendered at 60FPS -- planned to be upgraded to 120 FPS in the future -- on any smartphone, PC or smart TV simply at the touch of a button.[br][br]On paper at least, this futuristic service announced by Google has the capabilities to change the industry and how gamers game in the future. However, with no launch date or pricing announced, several questions remain about Stadia. But not for too long it appears. [br][br]The tech giant recently took to Twitter to tease the upcoming game streaming service and talk about when it will make way to our livingrooms. As per a tweet shared by the company, more details on the service could be just around the corner. Google appears to be targeting an August deadline for revealing the pricing details as well as game and launch related information about the service. [br][br]Of these, pricing is the biggest question and many are looking at understanding how the company plans to monetize Stadia in the coming months. If priced right, Stadia could very well make consoles from rivals such as Sony and Microsoft look like expensive indulgences rather than gaming machines. [br][br][br]

[br][br]Why Stadia is interesting[br][br]Stadia isn't the first game streaming service to have come out of silicon valley. We've seen the likes of OnLive being trialled before and even Microsoft talking about a video game streaming service that could debut in 2020. However, what gives Stadia a major advantage over everything else is the fact that it's by Google. [br][br]As Google explains, Stadia will be taken to screens across the globe using the company's popular browser -- Chrome. Additionally, it will also be closely tied to Google's other products such as YouTube. As the tech giant explains, once the service is up and running, a user watching a trailer of a game would be able to jump into playing it by simply tapping a button on the video. [br][br]They would be able to make use of Google's suite of services from within the game to watch walkthrough videos or interact with other players. As such, more than anything else, it's Stadia's deep integration with other Google products that could prove to be the biggest factor working in its favour once it's launched to users.
