Google Stadia Pro launches on November 19 (https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2019-10-15-google-stadia-pro-launches-november-19) for those who pre-purchased the Founder's Edition. But one element of that package won't be working quite as some may have assumed, at least not immediately.
Users on the Google Stadia subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/Stadia/comments/di92bp/damn_you_small_prints_there_seem_to_be_some/f3u7loq/) picked up on some fine print from a Stadia trailer stating that the Google Stadia controllers will only be wireless with a Chromecast Ultra. The controllers will require attachment via USB-C cable on all other platforms at launch.
