Google is working towards adding features, including the highly-anticipated free tier, YouTube streaming, family game sharing to Stadia soon.

Google Stadia received an update on Saturday, bringing it to version 2.7, and introducing a few minor tweaks to the UI. Below the surface though, we find that Google is preparing to launch Stadia Base with a Stadia Pro free trial, as well as YouTube live streaming and more, 9to5 Google recently reported.

As it stands today, the Google Stadia app won’t allow you to register an account if you don’t have a code from a Stadia Founder’s or Premiere Edition or a Buddy Pass.

But those days are numbered, as the free tier Stadia Base is launching sometime this year.

According to reports, Google may give people who sign up for new accounts one month of Stadia Pro for free.

Also, the APK indicates Google may limit new account sign-ups to maintain a certain level of quality and performance for existing subscribers.
