The Google Stadia controller's wireless capabilities will be limited at startup

Since the Stadia controller uses only Bluetooth for setup and connects via WiFi to the game, at first you really can't use it without a cable. It's not yet clear when wireless gaming will be available for other Stadia-compatible devices, but the tech giant said The Verge is focusing on getting wireless TV first to make the gaming experience on the big screen so good it is possible.

The Google Stadia streaming game service will debut on November 1

9 in the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. The Stadia founder's edition will set you back $ 130 and come with a controller, a Chromecast Ultra and two quarterly Stadia Pro subscriptions.
