iOS compatibility

Currently, no iOS devices support Google Stadia. However, it is on the company's radar.

"We want to ensure the best possible Stadia experience on mobile and this requires extensive testing. Today, we've announced support for tens of millions of new phones in our launch markets and look forward to adding more in the future," said a spokesperson for Google.

"We know everyone is excited to hear more about our support for iOS, and the truth is that it's not here today. It's something we, of course, would like to support and we'll share more when we have something of substance to disclose."

Moving forward

Last week, for the first time since its launch, new games were announced for Google Stadia - Panzer Dragoon: Remake, Serious Sam Collection, Stacks On Stacks (On Stacks), Spitlings and Lost Words: Beyond the Page.

Earlier this month, it was confirmed that a new free tier for the streaming service would be released in the next "few months."
