When Google Stadia launched, the only smartphones that the game-streaming service supported were the company’s own family of Pixel devices. That changes later this week.
Beginning February 20, Google Stadia will support a range of smartphones from ASUS, Razer, and Samsung. The majority of these are Galaxy devices, which stretch from the S8 to the brand-new S20.
Here’s the complete list:
- Samsung Galaxy S8
- Samsung Galaxy S8+
- Samsung Galaxy S8 Active
- Samsung Galaxy Note8
- Samsung Galaxy S9
- Samsung Galaxy S9+
- Samsung Galaxy Note9
- Samsung Galaxy S10
- Samsung Galaxy S10E
- Samsung Galaxy S10+
- Samsung Galaxy Note10
- Samsung Galaxy Note10+
- Samsung Galaxy S20
- Samsung Galaxy S20+
- Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra
- Razer Phone
- Razer Phone 2
- ASUS ROG Phone
- ASUS ROG Phone II
Google Stadia already includes support for the Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3, Pixel 3 XL, Pixel 3A, Pixel 3A XL, and Pixel 4. That means that by the end of this week, Stadia will work on a grand total of 26 Android phones, as well as desktops, laptops, tablets, TVs, and Chromecast Ultra. You just need a Stadia Founder’s Edition, Stadia Premiere Edition, or a Stadia Buddy Pass to play.
Google said that over 100 games would be coming to Stadia soon. A free tier called “Stadia Base” is also coming this year – but it’ll limit users to 1080p and stereo sound.
