What you get from a Buddy Pass
-
An invite code letting you join Stadia during this exclusive early stage.
-
A 3-month trial of Stadia Pro subscription with games to play for as long as you stay subscribed. See the games (with more coming soon!)
How it works: Your subscription will automatically continue after the 3 months. You can cancel the subscription anytime and keep playing any games you buy in your Stadia account. -
Access to play on multiple devices using supported controllers you already have or a mouse and keyboard:
-
Stadia.com on your computer using Chrome
-
The Stadia app on supported phones and tablets
-
If you buy a Stadia Controller and Google Chromecast Ultra, you can also play on TVs
-
Redeem your code to join Stadia
Check your internet before you sign up to see if you're ready to play.
1. Download the Stadia app on your phone from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.
2. Sign in using a Google Account. You won't be able to change Google Accounts later, so choose carefully! You also can't use the same account later to redeem perks from a different invite code.
3. Use the Buddy Pass code to start setup and choose your Stadia Name & avatar.
4. Start your Stadia Pro subscription. You'll need to enter a valid form of payment, but you won't be charged until your 3 month trial ends.
5. Claim a Stadia Pro game & start playing!
The nitty gritty details
-
You'll need to live in a supported region and not have signed up already for Stadia.
-
You have 3 months from now to use the code.
-
If your friend shared this code with multiple people and someone else redeemed it, you won't be able to use it.
-
If your friend returned their Founder's Edition for a refund, your Buddy Pass code won't work.
We hope you and your friend have an epic time together on Stadia!
