Google Stadia: 10 Questions We Need Answering ASAP

Consoles and services are entirely dependent on their third-party game releases. The Wii U was the perfect example of this; a total dearth of third-party games, and it died a swift death. Well, Google has more than enough power and money to get developers on board, but which ones?

We know Bethesda and Ubisoft are partnering with Google; Assassin's Creed: Odyssey was the game used for Stadia's beta test, while Doom was confirmed for the service during the GDC keynote.

What many gamers may not have noticed however, were the loading screens before the keynote began that seemingly teased No Man's Sky, Metal Gear Solid, Red Dead Redemption, and other titles. While we didn't see any of those titles actually announced for the service, perhaps we can expect announcements down the line; which would explain why Red Dead Redemption 2 never came to PC before now.

Having Konami, Rockstar, Bethesda, Ubisoft, and more on board is certainly a fantastic start, but what about Activision or Electronic Arts? And surely Google would want Fortnite, which would require a relationship with platform rival Epic.

Google only has one known first-party development team as of now, which is a far cry from the likes of PlayStation and Xbox, so it's going to really need those third-parties on board en masse.
