Stadia Pro usually costs $9.99 a month. Unlike regular Stadia, it provides free games every month as long as the subscription is valid. It also offers discounts for games in the Stadia store, and unlocks 4K, HDR, and 5.1 channel surround sound on compatible hardware and a fast enough Internet connection.
