[Asia Economy Reporter Seulgina Jo] According to the economic media CNBC on the 19th (local time), Google's game streaming service 'Stadia' will be available on Apple iPhones within a few weeks. The games will be played through the Safari web browser on the iPhone.


Game streaming services refer to enjoying games easily through the cloud, similar to listening to songs on a music streaming site. Users can play games anytime and anywhere on phones, tablets, TVs, etc., without purchasing expensive gaming consoles. Besides Google, Microsoft (MS), Facebook, and Nvidia also provide similar cloud gaming services.


Until now, the Apple App Store has blocked the release of competitors' game streaming service apps, including Google Stadia, citing the need to review the suitability of each game. However, following industry backlash, Apple recently revised the related guidelines, opening the way for App Store releases.



CNBC reported, "Google Stadia will be available on iPhones within a few weeks," adding, "It will run on the iPhone through the Safari web browser like Amazon Luna and Nvidia GeForce Now, eliminating the need for individual game suitability approval under App Store rules."
