Stadia is Shutting Down — September 30, 2022
Google has today announced that it will be shutting down its cloud gaming service Stadia on January 18, 2023. This will affect players of Elder Scrolls Online who have purchased the game through Stadia. The Stadia store has been taken offline, so it is no longer possible to purchase Elder Scrolls Online on Stadia. Those who already own the game can continue to use the service until January. Google has confirmed that refunds will be given for all software and hardware purchases made through Stadia.
Stadia uses the same megaservers as PC/Mac, so no account migration will be required once you own the game on PC or through Steam. If transitioning from Stadia to PC, be aware that running the game locally has higher network requirements than streaming from the cloud.
Update 20 October 2022: ZeniMax have announced that Stadia players will be able to log in and download ESO for free on PC/Mac.
