Cyberpunk 2077 Will Not Be Available on Stadia at Launch

CD Projekt Red has quietly revealed that Cyberpunk 2077 will not be available on Google Stadia when it launches on PC and consoles this September. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/08/30/15-minutes-of-cyberpunk-2077-deep-dive-gameplay"] In a press release discussing the upcoming advertising campaign for Cyberpunk 2077, the developer states “Cyberpunk 2077 will be released on 17 September 2020 for the PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4. By the end of the year the game will also make its debut on Google Stadia.” A discrepancy between platform release dates had not been previously specified by CD Projekt Red. However, it is now clear that the Stadia launch will come some time after the September 17 global launch.

Things have been looking better for Stadia - our original review of a 6 was recently updated to a 7 due to many improvements - however we noted that its catalogue is “still a ghost town”. An extra wait for Cyberpunk 2077 certainly doesn’t aid that.
