Will Google be putting its big foot into cloud gaming? That’s the question raised by a story in The Information that cites “people with knowledge of the project.” It also says that it was intended to launch in time for the 2017 holiday shopping season, though no reasons are given why it never materialized.

There aren’t many details, such as when or how much, or even what type of games it will run, but both a console and a controller have been mentioned. It also has reportedly been tested running off a Chromecast streaming stick.
