Be sure to also check out our Nintendo Indie World and Microsoft Inside Xbox recaps for all the biggest Gamescom news and game reveals.

Cyberpunk 2077 Coming To Google Stadia

Google kicked off its broadcast with a big announcement: CD Projekt Red's highly anticipated RPG, Cyberpunk 2077, is coming to Stadia. It's unclear exactly when the title will join the service, however; while Cyberpunk is slated to release for PS4, Xbox One, and PC on April 16, 2020, the game was only listed as "coming soon" to Stadia, suggesting it won't be on Google's cloud platform immediately at launch.

New Doom Eternal Trailer Revealed

One of the first marquee games confirmed for Stadia was Doom Eternal, and the latest Stadia Connect presentation gave us another look at the anticipated shooter in the form of a new trailer. Publisher Bethesda also unveiled a fearsome new enemy known as the Doom Hunter--a centaur-like monster bent on destroying the Doom Slayer.

Samurai Shodown Announced For Google Stadia

After more than a decade away, SNK's long-running Samurai Shodown series made a comeback on consoles and PC earlier this year, and the weapons-based fighting game will also be appearing on Google Stadia. The game will be available on the upcoming cloud platform within its "launch window," although an exact release date was not announced.

Mortal Kombat 11 Arrives On Stadia This Fall

NetherRealm's acclaimed Mortal Kombat 11 was also one of the first big-name games to be confirmed for Stadia, and now we have an idea of when it'll arrive. During the latest Stadia Connect, NetherRealm confirmed Mortal Kombat 11 will arrive on Stadia this November, when the cloud platform launches in most countries via the Stadia Founder's Edition.
