December 31, 2023, was initially the deadline for switching Stadia controllers to Bluetooth mode.
Google has now tacked on an additional year to that deadline.
To switch to Bluetooth, you’ll need to use the web-based tool on the Stadia website.
At the beginning of this week, we warned you that there were only a couple of weeks left to switch your Stadia controller to Bluetooth. If you haven’t made the switch already, you can let out a sigh of relief because Google is giving you more time.
Before Google announced the shutdown of Stadia, it gave its Stadia controllers a new lease on life by giving the gamepads a Bluetooth mode. This would make the device compatible with phones, PCs, and other gaming platforms. But to enable Bluetooth mode, you had to connect your controller to a PC and use Google’s web-based tool to activate the feature.
