As you may have already seen, Ubisoft have stayed true to their promise of transferring purchases made on Stadia over to PC. Fantastic news and a real gesture of good will, as Stadia players have received full refunds for the games bought on the cloud platform.
Now, as a nice Christmas bonus, It is now easier to continue playing in the clouds. As well as converting Stadia purchases to PC, Ubisoft is also giving gamers a free 30-day pass for Nvidia’s priority tier. You won’t need to do anything, but keep an eye on your Inbox.
I am sure this great news for anybody who hasn’t already tried Nvidia GeForce NOW before. Although GFN does have a free tier, it doesn’t give a taste of what the paid version is like. Now you can experience games with longer play times, Ray tracing (where available) and lower, most non-existent, queue times.
One of the reasons I was reluctant to try GeForce NOW, for the longest time, was my nonexistent PC games library. Thanks to Ubisoft, gamers who find themselves in a similar position will, at the very least, have Ubisoft games they bought on Stadia to try out.
I admit that I am still a little bitter about the closure of Stadia, but it is moves and offerings like this one that make the transition to other services a lot easier. Thank you, Ubisoft!
