Stadia’s handle sales and monthly active users hundreds of thousands less than Google’s expected target

Stadia’s handle sales and monthly active users were hundreds of thousands less than Google’s supposed goal, but this estimate did not specify the start and end time.

Due to the confusion when Stadia was released, the platform could only be bundled with Stadia Premiere Edition through Chrome or Chromecast Ultras at the time, and it lacked many features.

Several Stadia developers suggested delaying the release or making Stadia a beta product from the start, but this idea was resisted by Google Vice President Phil Harrison and other project executives.

Stadia is a cloud gaming platform launched by Google. Players can play 3A masterpieces without installation and download. On February 2, Google Stadia closed its first-party game development studio Stadia Games & Entertainment.

The task of this game studio is to produce exclusive works for Stadia cloud gaming services. The reason for the closure seems to be Stadia’s slow development momentum.

Google has never disclosed Stadia’s sales data or the number of active players, but it is certain that the number of players is significantly smaller than other gaming platforms.

However, just a few days after Stadia declared that it would end the production of first-party game development, they confirmed on their blog the news that games like ‘FIFA21’, ‘Judgement Eye: Last Words of Reaper’ will land on Stadia.
