Gears of War: Judgment developer People Can Fly's newest game, the sci-fi shooter Outriders, is out today--and that's no April Fool's joke. One of the platforms where you can play the game is Google Stadia, the ambitious streaming service from the tech giant.

To learn more about the Stadia version of Outriders, we spoke with Square Enix creative director Bartek Kmita and Stadia senior product manager Dan Cary.

In our interview, Kmita told us about the significance of launching day-and-date on Stadia, what kind of experience players can expect on streaming versus console, and how the game makes use of Stadia's unique "Stream Connect" feature. Kmita also shared that Square Enix hopes to bring more of its games to Stadia down the road where it makes sense. Cary further discussed the Stream Connect feature, saying it should help make you better at co-op games.
