Google began delivering the first Stadia Founder’s Edition kits last week, giving gamers access to the service for the first time. There have been some unfortunate hiccups in the launch including overheating Chromecasts and high latency. The latest Stadia shortcoming could make gameplay disappointing even when it’s working correctly. Google has confirmed Destiny 2 and Red Dead Redemption 2 don’t actually render at the promised 4K resolution.

One of the main selling points for cloud gaming is that you can play AAA games on almost any screen. All the hard work happens in the cloud, so any device that can decode a high-resolution video stream can be your gaming device. For example, Stadia lets you play titles like Mortal Kombat 11 and Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey on a smartphone that would never have any hope of rendering those graphics locally.
