Change in the future strategy of Google Stadia. Developers will receive the 85% of the income for each purchase of any title released since October 1, while Google will keep 15%. However, this distribution will only apply until the first 3 million dollars are reached. It is not a long-term plan either, since it will change again in 2023, so after that date the distribution of income will return to the same as before.
In addition, the North American company will implement a new model to share the income in the games of the Pro subscription, which will offer its partners an extra income each month. They will begin to apply at the end of July, as they have confirmed in a panel during the Games Summit. 70% of all money generated monthly for the Pro subscription it will be distributed among the partners based on the daily sessions that the players have spent in the games.
