Gears Tactics dev Splash Damage is making a Google Stadia exclusive

Google Stadia has had a rough launch, but that isn’t because the cloud-gaming technology doesn’t work. Instead, the service is suffering from a lack of exciting content. Now, Google is working to address that concern by partnering on an exclusive Stadia game with British developer Splash Damage. Google made this announcement today as part of its Games Developer Summit event.

Splash Damage is a respected studio with a long history of working on multiplayer shooters. It has also produced many of its own original releases like 2011’s Brink and 2014’s Dirty Bomb. Most recently, Splash Damage has worked with Microsoft to develop the Gears Tactics strategy game as well as the multiplayer mode for Gear 5.
