If you are wanting to end your experience with this service, here’s how to cancel Google Stadia.

What’s the difference between Stadia Basic and Stadia Pro?

Before you learn how to cancel Google Stadia, you will have to learnwhat that actually means. Both the platform’s free and paid tiers allow you to stream some of the latest video games to your Chromecast Ultra, PC, andmobile device. By paying Stadia Pro’s $9.99 monthly fee, you get access to a better gameplay experience. You can play games at up to a 4K resolution with 5.1 surround sound, provided you have the necessary equipment.

The main thing to take away from all this is that even if you cancel your Stadia Pro subscription, you may still play any games you purchased through the platform’s store. However, you won’t be able to play them in 4K without re-upping your subscription.
