[U: Available] Google Stadia adds Jotun, Sundered indie games, CHORUS confirmed for next year

Just a couple of weeks after its Stadia Connect, Google is today confirming three new titles coming to the platform. Two of those titles are coming this month while the third, CHORUS, is coming to Google Stadia in 2021 alongside other consoles.

Building on its library in May 2020, Google Stadia is adding Jotun: Valhalla Edition and Sundered: Eldritch Edition. While neither of these games is launching today, Google has confirmed both for release sometime this month.


Update 5/26: Jotun: Valhalla Edition and Sundered: Eldritch Edition have both arrived on Google Stadia as of May 26th. Jotun is available for $14.99 while Sundered runs $19.99. Both games are available now for purchase.


Both Jotun and Sundered are hand-drawn titles from Thunder Lotus Games. Jotun is a single-player action-exploration adventure that follows Norse mythology. Sundered, on the other hand, takes on inspiration from Metroid and Castlevania and can be played with up to 4 players. There’s no pricing yet, but both cost under $20 on Steam and are regularly discounted.

Jotun is a hand-drawn action-exploration game set in Norse mythology. In Jotun, you play Thora, a Viking warrior who died an inglorious death and must prove herself to the Gods to enter Valhalla. Explore vast regions of Norse Purgatory to find runes to unleash the jotun, giant Norse elementals. Fight them using only your massive two-handed axe, the blessings of the Gods, and your skills! Jotun: Valhalla Edition features Valhalla Mode, the ultimate battle against even fiercer versions of the jotun! A true challenge for those who wish to impress the Gods!
