When searching for a game players can now launch a game directly from the search results utilizing @GoogleStadia. pic.twitter.com/xblOsBpF6O — Bryant Chappel (@BryantChappel) August 11, 2022 The idea behind this implementation is, if one would hazard a guess, to provide as seamless a transition as possible between search and play. Naturally, you’ll have to be signed in to whichever streaming service you hit Play for, or the goal of seamlessness will be spoilt by the login page. There are other snags as well. As 9to5Google reports, mobile and desktop searches can sometimes yield different results. The example provided being Destiny 2, a search on PC shows Play buttons for Google Stadia and Nvidia GeForce Now, but a mobile search only shows the former. With cloud gaming being gaining more and more traction, for better or worse, this new Google Search feature was just a matter of time. In fact, it may be a little surprising that the internet search company took this long between launching Stadia and implementing this. Though one thing is pretty much for certain, is that none of this will appear locally, since none of the aforementioned game streaming services are available here.
