Google’s Stream Connect tech for Stadia will bring back split-screen games

Google’s Stadia cloud gaming platform is so powerful that it can stream multiple interactive streams for players who are playing high-quality 4K video games like the upcoming Doom Eternal. And one of the things this enables is split-screen gaming.

Long a staple of early video games, split-screen games have almost disappeared because of the challenge of streaming multiple scenes at the same time to a single TV and a single internet connection.
