Google Stadia will be launched with 12 games, it has only one exclusive

Although over thirty games have been confirmed for the Stage, most will still not be ready when the service launches next week.

Google Stadia is launching on the 19th of this month, and while this game streaming service will not be available with us, it will be interesting to see exactly what games will be launched. Specifically, a list of games has now been revealed that will be playable on the Stage from day one, and a little disappointment immediately followed. Google has boasted support for more than 30 games so far, but only 12 titles will be available next Tuesday. By the end of this year, Stadia will receive 14 more titles.

Although Google is a giant with an endless supply of money, it will launch its gaming platform with just one exclusive, or game that cannot currently be played elsewhere. The game is called GYLT, it comes to us from the creators of Rime, and thematically reminds us of the horror title Little Nightmares. It's not a high-budget exclusive, and it's already been confirmed that it will be released later in the classic PC release.

In addition to Gylt, Stadia will offer just four 2019 games: Mortal Kombat 11, Samurai Shodown, China and Just Dance 2020. The most notorious name is Red Dead Redemption 2, and besides it there are all parts of the newer Tomb Raider trilogy, Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Destiny 2 which will be free to all subscribers to the service.

As for the upcoming games by the end of 2019, the offer is a little more varied, but includes just one game we have never played anywhere else before (Darksiders Genesis).

• Attack on Titan 2: Final Battle
• Borderlands 3
• Darksiders Genesis
• Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2
• Farming Simulator 19
• Final Fantasy 15
• Football Manager 2020
• Ghost Recon Breakpoint
• Grid
• Metro Exodus
• NBA 2K20
• Rage 2
• Trials Rising
• Wolfenstein: Youngblood

It remains to be seen whether this kind of gaming offer will be well received by users, though it must be admitted that it is definitely not something that would delight anyone.
