"Buying Cyberpunk 2077 on Stadia will get you a complimentary Stadia Premiere kit. This offer is running through December 17th or until supplies last. (Stadia unofficially supported on Android TV just sideload the latest Stadia APK or use Chromium and a game controller)

by ShawnDex

Google really wants you to buy Cyberpunk 2077 on Stadia — so much, in fact, that it’s giving away a Stadia Premiere kit to each person who preorders (or who has already preordered) the game on Stadia or buys it after launch until December 17th. The promotion runs “until supplies last,” though Google declined to say how many units it will be giving out.

The hardware bundle that usually costs $100 includes a white Stadia controller, a Chromecast Ultra, and, for new users, a one-month trial subscription to Stadia’s Pro-tier service. Stadia Pro includes 4K streaming and a growing collection of free games similar to Sony’s PlayStation Plus and Microsoft’s Xbox Live Gold subscription.

To redeem the deal, you’ll need a Stadia account, though you don’t need to be a paid subscriber. Then, head to Cyberpunk 2077 ’s product page and purchase the game. If you have a Stadia Pro subscription, you can save $10 on the game if you haven’t already used that promo.

"Google really wants you to buy Cyberpunk 2077 on Stadia"

Well, Google really wants you to start building a library on Stadia so you feel like you have an investment in the platform.

The problem is, short of making purchases cross licensed with the Steam and Epic stores, I don't see how Google could ever convince me they aren't going to abandon the platform in the next decade and make all the games I bought unplayable.

As much as people want to believe the click bait shit out there.... This is an incredible deal. You'll try stadia once and be sold. Especially if you've only tried xcloud before. It's miles better.

I got excited when I saw mention of the Chromecast Ultra, thinking it was the latest one with the remote and AndroidTV. Looks like it's the older version. Dangit.

I have a Chromecast, I have some pads...

And after Google photos unlimited storage removal, I don't trust Google to keep the service alive.

I want to keep my games.

So this is not for me, but if you want a Chromecast or move a lot between houses or you want to play but you don't have pc, nor consoles, could be a huge deal for you

I am already using stadia and happy with it! Can I buy this bundle and link the game to my existing account?

Android TV support is great because I'm not switching between the two chromecasts to play a game. I wish Stadia offered monthly rentals, for people that don't care about replay value. Thats where these other offerings are preferable.

Interesting. They are also giving away the same kit of you subscribe to Youtube Premium.

As an original stadia premier owner, I'm still a bit sour I cannot access my destiny on stadia without having a pro subscription. Is this offer going to tie the game to pro as well?

US only

Sounds like a good offer. But will I be able to play it in 4k60fps HDR and ray tracing without paying for a pro subscription? I guess not. I don't understand why I should get it on Stadia in this case.
