For some reason, the general news site Lapresse.ca published this morning a big feature on the Google Stadia with detailed prices, launch date and games details. There's no mention of it coming from sources, so it feels like a prepared article that got published too early. It's in French so here's a brief summary:
Plateforme en ligne Stadia: jouer grâce à l'infonuagique pour 169 $ | KARIM BENESSAIEH | Techno Une manette, une rondelle de 6 cm appelée Chromecast Ultra et un téléviseur : c'est tout ce qu'il faudra pour accéder aux jeux vidéo, même les plus exigeants, sur la...

(note: it's a canadian website so it's a possibility all prices are in canadian dollars, and not american dollars)
- Launch in November in 14 countries (including Canada)
- You can preorder the "founder's edition" of Stadia for 169$ today, which includes the gamepad, a Chromecast Ultra (which is 6cm in length), Destiny 2 and three months of subscription
- Stadia works through a subscription only at first. The Stadia Pro sub costs 11.99$ per month and will include streaming up to 4K/60fps. Note that only "older" games will be included in this sub, and more recent games will have to be bought separately.
- A separate sub will be available in 2020, and is completely free. It'll only allow up to 1080p streaming, and won't include any game like the Pro sub.
- 10mbps in download/1mbp in upload is the minimal requirement, with 35mbps required for 4K "optimal comfort".
- You'll need the Chromecast for Stadia to work at launch, but it's planned to work through any Google device with Google Chrome in 2020.
- Games planned include Destiny 2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, The Divison 2, DOOM, all three Tomb Raider games.
- Line-up will have 31 games at launch.
UPDATE: Jason Schreier confirms

Why so expensive? Destiny 2 is f2p so hardly something that adds to itWell the Destiny f2p announcement isn't supposed to be till later today. Maybe Google just wanted to make it sound like a special deal at their show lol.
