It is described as "share your thoughts on Stadia and help shape its future."

For Stadia, the company is partnering with a third-party research group that will contact users that are accepted directly. Many pre-orderers appear to have been invited to join, 9TO5Google reported.

Questions of the survey includes whether a customer bought Stadia Founder's Edition or Premiere directly, whether the user received it, or purchased it for someone else.

Google also wants buyers to hear that their pre-order has been cancelled.

The company earlier revealed that the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL along with the latest Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL smartphones will be supported by Stadia.

Initially, only Pixel 3 and Pixel 3a were expected to support the latest offering from the US based search engine giant.

Along with Pixel smartphones, Google's game streaming service will also support Chrome OS tablets such as the Pixel Slate, Acer Chromebook Tab 10 and HP Chromebook X2.

Buyers will be able to purchase Founder's Edition of Google Stadia for $129.99. It will also come with a free copy of Destiny 2 game. After the free subscription is over, users will have to pay $9.99 per month.

It will come to 14 countries, including the US, UK, Canada, Ireland, France, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands.
