Google Stadia Will Now Launch With 22 Games

Google Stadia is right around the corner, with the system launching on November 19. Google recently announced the system’s launch titles, along with the other games coming in 2019. It was a thin list, with only one console exclusive (Gylt), which had some potential customers concerned. Thankfully for early adopters of the new machine, the launch line-up has been expanded, with many titles that were due at some point in 2019 now arriving on day one.

The news was announced by Google vice president Phil Harrison, who thanked the developers and publishers who worked to prepare their games for the system’s release.

These are the 12 games initially announced for the Stadia launch, which are still coming on day one:

• Assassin’s Creed Odyssey
• Destiny 2
• Gylt
• Just Dance 2020
• Kine
• Mortal Kombat 11
• Red Dead Redemption 2
• Thumper
• Tomb Raider
• Rise of the Tomb Raider
• Shadow of the Tomb Raider
• Samurai Shodown

And now, here are ten more games that will now release on November 19 alongside the new system:

• Attack on Titan: Final Battle 2
• Farming Simulator 2019
• Final Fantasy XV
• Football Manager 2020
• Grid 2019
• Metro Exodus
• NBA 2K20
• Rage 2
• Trials Rising
• Wolfenstein: Youngblood

Borderlands 3, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, Dragon Ball: Xenoverse 2 and Darksiders Genesis are also due before the end of the year. Darksiders Genesis will release on December 5, the same day as the PC version, making it a console exclusive to Stadia for about three months (it launches on PS4, Xbox One and Switch on February 14, 2020.)
