Time flies when you’re in the middle of games, challenges, and earning points, doesn’t it? One minute you’re exploring what’s new in the Google Skills Arcade, and the next you’re locked into your next lab.
That’s why we’ve got something nice coming up.
The first Arcade Insider for this season of the Google Skills Arcade is scheduled for March 2026. And this one’s all about your journey so far. It will include a complete update on your points — everything you’ve earned since the very start of the season.
Sometimes we’re so focused on the next game that we forget to look back at how much we’ve already done. This Insider is your chance to see the bigger picture!
We know some of you are already waiting for the Insider — don’t worry, it hasn’t been sent out yet. Everyone will receive it together.
There was a delay in the Arcade Insider Update, which is completely understandable. However, regarding the Points System Criteria of Arcade Prize Tiers, there has been no update from the very beginning. @Yugali
If the team plans to drop bigger surprises or “bigger bombs” at the end of the season only, then it would be much better to provide participants with all the essential updates and clear criteria from the start. It really helps participants to stay motivated & aligned with the targets defined in a season.
Without ths clearly defined Targets, it feels as though participants are running blindly in a race type game without knowing the very basic thing i.e defined Targets/Criteria for their achievements.
Transparency in this regard is essential for maintaining fairness, confidence and trust.
@Yugali please clarify on this matter because Arcade Certification Zone (Dataflow qwik start - python) lab not working. Pipeline not creating it will give error again and again.
I have one small request, will it be possible for the re-release of the Google Arcade Facilitator Program 2026 Interest form?
I am very excited to become a facilitator, but the interest forms are currently unavailable. I am the head of a technical club at my institution and have 500+ interested students willing to participate. Is there any way that I could register to become a facilitator now?
I noticed a small labeling error in The Arcade March Sprint 1 module.
While the header is correct for March, the fourth lab in the list is titled “Arcade February 2026 Sprint 1”. It seems like a leftover label from the previous month.
how do you know you become a facilitator of google arcade cohort 1 for 2026! because even i have fill the interest form but still i didn’t get any specific mail.
