SOFTWARE & DRIVERS

Rumour: Google Stadia will launch in November, pricing revealed
https://www.pcgamer.com/rumour-google-stadia-will-launch-in-november-pricing-revealed/
Canadian news site Lapresse has published a list of Stadia details, including a November 14 release date, a $169 (presumably Canadian Dollars) Founders Edition and some of the games it will feature at launch.
The Founders Edition will apparently come with a gamepad, a Chromecast Ultra, Destiny 2 and a three month subscription to the service. The Chromecast is going to be necessary, as that's the only way you'll be able to use Stadia at launch, though it will work through any Google device next year.
There will be two subscription services, starting with Stadia Pro, which will let players enjoy 4K at 60 fps, but not all the games will be available with that subscription. Some games will have to be purchased. In 2020, Stadia Basic will offer a cheaper 1080p package, but that won't include any of the games you get at no extra cost with Stadia Pro.
