Google has announced that it is extending the deadline for customers who purchased Stadia controllers, the cloud gaming platform that was discontinued earlier this year, to convert their controllers for Bluetooth connectivity. Originally scheduled to be completed by the end of this year, the conversion will now be available until the end of 2024.
Stadia controllers only used Wi-Fi for connectivity, but after the announcement of Stadia’s discontinuation, Google has released firmware to allow these controllers to be used with Bluetooth, reducing electronic waste.
The conversion of controllers to Bluetooth must be done through Google’s web application, and once the firmware is updated, it cannot be changed back.
TLDR: Google has extended the deadline for customers to convert Stadia controllers to Bluetooth connectivity until the end of 2024. This firmware update reduces electronic waste and can only be done through Google’s web application.
