JAKARTA - On September 29 yesterday, Google officially announced that the Stadia server will be shut down starting January 18, 2023.

Google also added that ahead of the server shutdown, there will likely be some problems in gameplay during that period.

However, Google promises to refund funds related to the purchase of Stadia hardware made through the Google Store, and all additional game purchases and content made through the Stadia store.

Now, Google is again providing an update on refunds promised to players.

"Starting November 9, 2022, Stadia will try to process refunds automatically for all game purchases, additional content, and subscription fees other than the Stadia Pro made via the Stadia Store," Google wrote in its update.

Knowing the number of players is not small, Google asks players to be patient during the transaction process by not contacting Customer Support, because that will not speed up the refund process.

"We still expect most of the refunds to be processed on January 18, 2023," the tech giant added.

For those of you who wonder how the refund was made, Google states that every transaction carried out will be automatically sent in the form of payment used by that person to make a previous purchase.

"Jika kami tidak dapat mengeluarkan pengembalian dana Anda ke bentuk pembayaran asli, kami akan mengirimkan email kepada Anda di akun Google yang digunakan untuk melakukan pembelian," jelasnya.

The email sent will later include instructions on how to prepare an alternative refund method.
