Google Stadia may be on its last legs and will soon be confined to history but that’s not stopping Google betting on cloud gaming. Google is partnering with Asus, Lenovo and Acer to launch new laptops built for cloud gaming.
Three new gaming Chromebooks are coming soon
In a blog post, Google announced three new Chromebooks — Acer Chromebook 516 GE, ASUS Chromebook Vibe CX55 Flip and Ideapad Gaming Chromebook from Lenovo. These laptops will have features like 120Hz+ high resolution screens for crystal clear visuals, RGB gaming keyboards (on select models) with anti-ghosting capabilities for added speed and excitement, WiFi 6 or 6E for better connectivity and immersive audio, said Google.
Google partners with Nvidia, Microsoft
Google said that it has teamed up with NVIDIA to bring support for GeForce NOW’s highest performance RTX 3080 tier to cloud gaming Chromebooks. This will help users stream titles like Fortnite, Cyberpunk 2077, Crysis 3 Remastered and more at up to 1600p resolution and 120 frames per second, taking full advantage of the 120Hz+ high-resolution displays. “The RTX 3080 membership also boosts your gameplay with features like ray tracing, which simulates how light behaves in the real world to make visuals hyper-realistic,” said Google in the blog post. Further, the GeForce NOW app will come preinstalled on gaming Chromebooks.
Google has also partnered with Microsoft to bring Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) to Chromebook through a web app. Xbox will bring a library of hundreds of games including Forza Horizon 5, Grounded and Microsoft Flight Simulator, accessible through an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription. Chromebooks will now support three leading cloud gaming platforms — Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta), NVIDIA GeForce NOW and Amazon Luna — bringing with them full PC and console games straight from the cloud.
Gaming on Chromebooks? Google says yes
Google said that it understands “Chromebooks are not necessarily known for being gaming laptops” and people use it for productivity or online streaming mainly.” But the new cloud gaming Chromebooks can actually be the perfect devices for gamers who aren’t always seen as gamers — “undercover” gamers, if you will,” said Google in the blog post.
Pricing and availability
Google has said that starting October all three gaming Chromebooks will be available for purchase. It’s not clear in what regions will the three new laptops will launch. Google hasn’t revealed the pricing of the three gaming Chromebooks.
