Google Stadiahasn’t had an easy time of it, but if you’ve been holding off on testing outGoogle’s game streaming service a recent discount might offer just the incentive to dive straight in.

That’s an excellent saving on the proprietary controller and aChromecast Ultra(which is the only Chromecast model capable of running Google Stadia services right now). That means you’re all set up for streaming games to your TV with one handy package - and it’s well-timed, considering you cancurrently grab a one month free trialof Google Stadia Pro (usually £8.99 a month).

Of course, if you’re planning on running Google Stadia on your mobile or laptop, you won’t need to pick up the bundle at all - you can start buying games straight away, or pick up a Stadia Pro subscription for access to a library of playable games.

Google Stadia price explained

Ever since its release, the Google Stadia price has been a friction point for many. From confusing initial marketing to staggered release dates, the actual cost of Google’s streaming service wasn’t completely clear for a while.

Google Stadia itself is completely free - you can buy games from the service and stream them direct to your laptop or mobile. However, you can also pay £8.99 / $9.99 a month for a Stadia Pro subscription which gives you access to a growing roster of free games as long as your membership is active. That’s laptop and mobile gaming explained, but what if you want to play on your TV?

The only way to play Google Stadia on the big screen is through a Stadia controller and a Chromecast Ultra. That’s where the Premiere Edition bundle comes in - you can save some cash on both of these items bundled in together. You’ll still need a Stadia Pro subscription for access to free games, however.
