Google Announces Stadia, the all-device gaming platform.

March 19, 2019 By Eric Olson

I participated in Project Stream, the codename for what is now called Stadia. Back in the fall, Assassin's Creed Odyssey was offered as a public test, and all you had to do was sign up. So I did.

Bowl of black bean chili on a window ledge
