‘Cyberpunk 2077’ fans on Stadia can now transfer their saves to other platforms

Stadia might be dead but Night City lives on, as fans who were playing Cyberpunk 2077 on Stadia can now transfer their saves to other platforms.Developer CD Projekt Red has released a guide for Stadia players, advising players on how to transfer their Cyberpunk 2077 saves from Stadia to PC and consoles.The process is a (relatively) painless one for PC players, requiring them to download their save directly from Google and, with some fiddling, place it in their Cyberpunk 2077 game folder. The process is a little more complicated for console players though, requiring them to make use of cross progression on PC and syncing it with their GOG accounts in order to transfer their progress.Full instructions on how to transfer your saves from Stadia are available from CD Projekt Red here.Google announced the demise of its cloud streaming service Stadia in September, stating that it had failed to gain “the traction with users that we expected,” though it maintained that “the underlying technology platform that powers Stadia has been proven at scale and transcends gaming.”Stadia is due to shut down completely early next year, and all Stadia hardware purchased through the Google store and all games and add-ons bought via the Stadia store will be refunded.Stadia’s demise might have been coming for some time now, but Google still failed to notify developers ahead of the announcement – even when they had games due to come out on the platform, understandably upsetting a number of them.They’re not the only ones upset too, one Red Dead Redemption 2 player will lose 6,000 hours of playtime once Stadia shuts down.

‘The Quarry’ and ‘High On Life’ were supposed to be Google Stadia titles
The Quarry and High On Life had development involvement from Google Stadia before this was scrapped.Two sources told Axios about Stadia’s involvement in these games in a report published yesterday (June 17), with neither The Quarry nor High On Life having any publication connections to Google Stadia as of publication.The sources say that both titles were initially being billed as major flagship releases for Stadia, but that the cloud streaming service’s change in direction shifted focus away from these games.Back in 2020, The Quarry developer Supermassive Games announced a partnership with Google Stadia, although when the game was announced, there was no word of any partnership exclusivity.According to Axios, a Take-Two representative (which published The Quarry), said that Supermassive Games “was looking for a publishing partner as the project came to completion,” whilst a Google representative didn’t reply to a request for comment and a Squanch Games representative (the developer of High On Life) gave nothing away either.The Quarry is the next ‘80s horror movie-inspired title from Supermassive Games, which sees camp counsellors at the end of summer getting involved with some grizzly goings-on when left alone for the night.In our three-out-of-five star review for the game, we said: “Despite a slow start, The Quarry delivers even more ways to feel terrible when your actions fail a tropey teen (or six).
