Stadia’s Launch Lineup: A Quick Peek
Google’s cloud‑gaming platform Stadia is set to go live on November 19. The list of titles that will be available on opening day is fairly modest, but it does include a few fan‑favorites that could snag a few early adopters.
Games you’ll get right from day one
- Tomb Raider – The cinematic adventure of Lara Croft.
- Red Dead Redemption 2 – Western storytelling at its finest.
- Mortal Kombat 11 – Capable of blowing up your screen.
- Just Dance 2020 – For those who want to scream and sweat.
Not exactly a blockbuster spread, but it does feature a nice mix of genres: epic narratives, high‑octane fights, and a dance‑mania track that’s oddly refreshing.

Singapore launch: Still on the unknown
There’s no word yet on when Stadia will roll out in Singapore, but that doesn’t dampen the excitement. We’re all watching the platform’s launch performance. Google claims this is the future of gaming, and it’s up to us to see if they’re right.
Quick recap
