The writing was on the wall for a long time. At least refunds will be happening.

(FYI) Google is shutting down Stadia on Jan 18th 2023

Players will continue to have access to their games library and play through January 18th, so they can complete final play sessions. We expect to have the majority of refunds completed by mid-January.https://t.co/1H7ubQk4lz pic.twitter.com/TF6xjgohVY

"We will be refunding all Stadia hardware purchases made through the Google Store, and all game and add-on content purchases made through the Stadia store."

Damn all hardware too? That's pretty awesome, don't think I've seen that before in gaming.

With games being cloud based and full refunds available, the only proof the platform and its games ever existed will be the handful of physical devices and controllers with Stadia branding. A warning to all gamers about cloud-only based platforms.

You know it deserves the GOTY.

Sucks that the only thing Google won't be refunding is Pro subscriptions. The hardcore Google fans got ripped off the most on that one

Not surprising at all.

But didn't a few bigger third party games got also announced for Stadia just a few months ago? I was expecting more 3rd party companies to drop the platform sooner before Google shutting it down. Guess they're not too happy now.
