Google acquires Montreal-based Typhoon Studio to develop exclusive Stadia games

Jade Raymond, vice president of Stadia Games and Entertainment, said Typhoon Studio's acquisition hopes to create "platform-defining exclusive content" for Stadia
Google just bought Montreal-based Typhoon Studio to help bolster exclusive content on its Stadia game streaming service. Game industry veterans, who have worked on titles like Batman and Assassin's Creed, head the small studio. They're now Google's first-ever first-party studio. We do not know how much the tech giant paid to acquire Typhoon Studio.
While the studio joins Google's Stadia Games and Entertainment Studio in Montreal, its first game, Journey to the Savage Planet, will still be released on different platforms, including the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the PC, on January 28, 2020. We would expect the game to make its way to Stadia in the future, too. Google still has a lot of improvements it needs to make to Stadia, but this acquisition might be a step in the right direction in offering exclusive content for its users.
