UPDATE 01
Arcade Facilitators Are Here
Google Skills Arcade Facilitators provide additional guidance and support for learners participating in the program. The goal is to help participants navigate challenges, get unstuck, and make better progress through their hands-on learning journey.
UPDATE 02
Longer Season, New Tiers & Prize Counter Changes
The 2026 Arcade is now a year-long program running throughout 2026 with a new tier structure. Google has confirmed a single unified Prize Counter opening later in the year, meaning points earned during 2026 will be carried forward until redemption opens.
UPDATE 03
Fewer Labs & 1 Point Per Arcade Game
The number of labs per Arcade game is reduced so learners get more room to explore, while every qualifying Arcade game awards 1 Arcade Point for a balanced point system across cloud, data, and AI tracks.
UPDATE 04
Sprints & Certification Zone Are Being Retired
Google Skills Arcade Sprints and Certification Zone have been sunset as part of the 2026 program changes. The Arcade is shifting its focus toward deeper, hands-on activities that help learners build practical Google Cloud skills.
