Google Stadia offered two plans, but you could play without an account. There were a number of trial options available, where you could play various games for 30 to 120 minutes for free. This let you get the feel for a game before deciding if you want to subscribe.
Paid members had access to a free library of games as long as they remained a member. Stadia Pro would cost you $9.99/month with the option to cancel at any time. You still had to buy games to play, though.
There was also an option for a Premiere Edition bundle that cost $69.99. This included a Clearly White Stadia controller and a Chromecast Ultra – serving as the perfect starter pack for you to stream your gameplay to your TV.
On both levels, you did have the benefit of having all previously purchased games linked to your Stadia account, so you could play them at any time without having to pay again.
GeForce gives you three price plan options.
Free:
On the free option you can play any games you have previously purchased as long as they are compatible with the GeForce platform. You will however be limited to hour-long sessions and during peak times, you may have to wait as paid members get priority access.
Priority:
Priority membership costs $8.99/month and gives you priority access to the servers and longer gaming sessions (up to 6 hours). You can also pay for 6 months in advance to take advantage of the discounted price of $49.99 for 6 months. Paid members get to enjoy the benefits of RTX cards and ray-tracing.
RTX 3080:
This top tier option gives you access to sessions of up to 8 hours, and you get exclusive access to superior gaming technology like the RTX 3080 graphics card; up to 1440p 120fps gaming and ray tracing. You can even play in 4k HDR if you have a Nvidia Shield TV.
