Google has begun to refund Stadia cloud game users, and all game expenses will be refunded the same way.

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen OC_Formula for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, Nov. 13 (Xinhua)-- in September, Google announced that it would shut down its Stadia cloud gaming service in early 2023. Google also announced plans to return all games that users have bought on Stadia since its launch. Now, these games are being refunded, but it may take several months to clear them all.

CTOnews.com learned that the Stadia service will be closed on January 18, 2023, the Stadia store has gone offline and Google has stopped charging for Stadia Pro subscriptions.

Although Stadia Pro subscribers will not get a refund, any game purchased through Stadia will automatically get a refund.

Google asked Stadia customers not to contact customer service about game refunds. Google says you can't speed up the refund even if you go to customer service, so it wants customers to avoid contacting customer service for feedback on Stadia refunds until January, when the vast majority of refunds should have arrived.

According to reports, customers who buy 20 or less games / DLC on Stadia will receive a separate refund email for each game, while users who buy more than 20 games can only receive one email detailing all refunds.

In addition, if it cannot be refunded through the original payment, Google will contact these customers again to develop an alternative.
