Google made a series of Stadia announcements today, starting with news that PUBG is now available for free as part of Stadia Pro.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG for short) was already available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. But now Stadia Pro members can grab a copy of the Pioneer Edition free of charge. Aside from the base game, it also comes with the Cold Front season pass. If you buy the game through the free tier of Stadia, PUBG will cost $30.
