With Google Stadia, you can play games on your PC, laptop, or smartphone without the need for a game launcher. However, Google also has an option of Stadia Pro with a $10 subscription, that allows for better sound and streaming quality, as well as access to a growing collection of games. Another perk is that you qualify for discounts for games and to Stadia’s free catalog. The subscription starts with a 3-month trial which you can take full advantage of. And if you want to cancel it, you won’t lose your paid games.

What will happen after I cancel my subscription?
The result is not very complicated. It’s actually pretty simple to understand. After you cancel your Stadia Pro subscription, here’s what’ll happen:
- You will lose access to the 4K, 60fps streaming with HDR, and 5.1 surround sound. It will be decreased to the original 1080p and stereo sound quality.
