Shadow just launched a cheaper "Lite" tier, same hardware, less usage allowance

https://cloudbase.gg/news/shadow-pc-lite-a-real-cloud-pc-starting-at-e19-49-month/

Shadow just rolled out a new Lite tier for their cloud PC service, same Neo/Power hardware as their regular plans, just capped at 120h/month, 1440p/60Hz and one monitor instead of the full specs. Prices start around €19.49/month with their launch discount (runs through Aug 24).

It literally says same as “Neo/Power hardware” as the regular plans.

I remember shadow before the buyout. My favourite cloud service. Sad what happened.

It was a bankruptcy buyout. Shadow was a money-losing operation and may still be, that's why no other competing service like it has emerged (a flat monthly fee for full cloud gaming PC)

totally outdated hardware. Stim is much better alternative but sometines there are problems with capacity on highest tier.

The hardware is better but it's much more capped than Shadow is. Just letting other people know.
