Click To Play Feature Makes Its Debut For Stadia Today

In anticipation for today’s Stadia Connect presentation, what Google had to share regarding the coming showcase was left for players to only speculate on possible appearances. While it was certain that Google would introduce more anticipated titles to the Stadia Store, it was also suggested that the firm would also include new and unique experiences only available on Stadia to be revealed as well.

In addition to new games on all fronts, it was predicted that possibly more features to the Stadia platform would be underway for the coming showcase. With the presentation taking place this afternoon, Google reveals that Click to Play implementation for Stadia has finally been added. The feature was advertised with the commencement of the platform well over a year ago, but it was missing when Stadia launch this past November.

Essentially, viewers watching a video on YouTube will be able to click a specialized link to instantly jump into the respected title that the streamer/YouTuber is playing at any moment.
