Google-Verizon Teams Up to Offer Next-Gen Cloud Gaming Experience

Recently, Verizon announced teaming up with Google Stadia to deliver the best games with top speeds. Verizon Fios is a 100% optic fiber connection that offers a high amount of data transfer with faster speeds than most. 

As online games and Internet speed goes hand in hand in this new age. Hence, Verizon and Google are offering a Stadia Premier Edition with every new Gigabit connection starting from 29 January.  

Each Stadia Premier Edition comes with a controller, a 3-month Stadia Pro subscription with 4k/60fps access for free. Also, it offers Chromecast for a seamless experience on your existing TV.

What is Google’s New Project Stadia?

Google recently launched a cloud base gaming Project named “Stadia”. It lets you dive right into a game without any heavy physical hardware requirement. The gaming platform is so simple, you dont have to own any CD nor worry about them.

With Stadia, you can play games anywhere in your existing devices over WiFi. That’s right, it works on all the basic hardware that you or your friends already own. This includes your TV, desktop, laptop, selected tablets, and even Pixel phones.

Generally, all devices that support the Chrome browser can run Stadia in it. Also, with cloud gaming, you dont need to worry about downloading or installation of any games. If your Internet allows, it can run games in 4K resolution seamlessly on your device. That’s why partnering with Verizon Fios is important as it is the perfect platform for gamers and multimedia users.

How Does Google Stadia Work?

Google Stadia basically streams games without rendering any physical copies on a remote server instead of your local device. The game is then streamed to any of your devices over WiFi, while the input on the controller is sent back to its cloud servers.

You can access Google Stadia by using a remote PC or buying its subscription plans. Google offers subscription plans for Stadia Pro at $10/month. It comes with complimentary free games, 4K streaming and also 5.1 surround sound.
