Not following the Netflix Model:
As much as fans will be disappointed with this decision, Google has decided not to follow Netflix’s model and will follow up with a subscription-based service and of course, the games will be for sale individually; the base price for Stadia will be around $10. And they introduced a Founders Edition Bundle, which is priced for $130, and for the Founders Bundle you get what is listed below:
- Three months of Stadia Pro
- A Buddy Pass that allows you to give a friend three months of Stadia Pro
- The exclusive Night Blue Stadia Controller
- A Stadia Controller Power adapter
- A Google Chromecast Ultra
- A Google Chromecast Ultra Power adapter with an Ethernet port
- Founder’s Stadia Name
- Founder’s Badge
- Destiny 2 with the Shadowkeep Expansion, Three Buddy Passes.
