It's no wonder that Doom Eternal won't run at “true 4K” on Google Stadia any more

When Google Stadia was first announced at GDC last year, id boss Marty Stratton promised that Doom Eternal would run at “true 4K” when it launched on the search giant’s cloud streaming service. However, according to id’s updated specs for the game, this is no longer going to be the case. Instead, the Stadia version of Doom Eternal will now run at 1800p when played on a 4K display (that’s 3200×1800), with some sneaky up-sampling pushing it the rest of the way to proper 4K (3840×2160). The news will no doubt come as a blow for die-hard Stadia fans, but when you take another look at id’s official 4K PC requirements for Doom Eternal, it’s actually not entirely surprising.
