I wonder if it was timed exclusivity, or they were released from their exclusivity deal when Google discontinued the service.

I'm leaning towards the former. Judging from some of the other former exclusives, it seems like Google's strategy was lengthy timed exclusives until their own 1st party could start building stuff from the ground up.

Hopefully it won't be much longer until all previous Stadia exclusives are brought to other platforms. Still waiting on GYLT to find its way to everything else.
