Doom Eternal will be released on Google Stadia, more games will be revealed later

In the Google GDC 2019 speech, company president Phil Harrison unveiled a new cloud streaming service called Stadia. Assassin's Creed Odyssey was put forward during the event after being used during Project Stream testing last year, but it was not the only triple-A game promised on the hardware. Later in the presentation, Id Software executive producer, Marty Stratton, announced that Eternal Doom would be one of the upcoming games on Stadia.

Stratton said that Doom Eternal was playing and looked "great" on Stadia. The Doom 2016 sequel will be played in true 4K HDR at 60 fps on the cloud gaming platform. Stadia is designed to bring players, spectators and developers together on the same platform. For example, during Google's keynote address, the company explained how you can watch a trailer of a game on YouTube and then start playing this streaming game in seconds.

Stadia will also offer cross-platform support. Harrison has confirmed the game on several platforms, allowing you to play with others, regardless of the platform. Stadia will also support cloud backups for game status and files, so that specific titles can also have cross-platform progress.

Stadia will be supported on multiple platforms including desktops, laptops, TVs, tablets and phones. At launch, the service will be able to stream games up to 4K HDR at 60 FPS with surround sound, and Google plans to increase its resolution to 8K in the future. Although you can use existing controllers with Stadia, Google also publishes its own controller, which supports Google Assistant. The stadiums should come out this year.

For more information on cloud games, you can learn more about its operation and about companies other than Google that invest in the underlying technology. We are also collecting all the news on Google Stadia games announced at GDC today.

Doom Eternal is also scheduled for 2019, and will soon be available on Xbox One, PS4, PC, Nintendo Switch and now Stadia. Neither Bethesda nor id Software has announced whether the game will arrive at the Switch on the same day as the other platforms or if this version is delayed. Eternal is more immersive and macabre than his predecessor. The new game also offers additional ways to move on the map, including a grapple and a free race.
