Ready, Set, Reward - GeForce NOW Membership Rewards Await

16/10/2025

GeForce NOW is more than just a platform to stream fresh games every week - it offers celebrations for the gamers who make it epic, with member rewards to sweeten the deal.

This week, GeForce NOW Ultimate members can score a free Borderlands 4 reward and upgrade their setup with the latest SteelSeries Nimbus Cloud controllers and headsets - the perfect gear for leveling up any cloud-based adventures.

Plus, Steam Next Fest kicks off this week, serving up a flood of new demos. Get them all through Install-to-Play, the latest feature on GeForce NOW with the NVIDIA Blackwell RTX upgrade.

Fire up the cloud, grab a controller and check out the 10 new games in the cloud this week, on top of the 1.0 release of Pax Dei. It's always a rewarding time to be a GeForce NOW member.

Atlanta will be next to light up on the Blackwell RTX map. Ashburn, Portland, Dallas and London are the latest regions to get GeForce RTX 5080-class power, with Atlanta coming next. Stay tuned to GFN Thursday for updates as more regions upgrade to Blackwell RTX. Follow along with the latest progress on the server rollout page.

This week, Control joins the lineup of GeForce RTX 5080-ready titles, already available on the service. Look for the GeForce RTX 5080 Ready row in the app or check out the full list.

Key to the Chaos Getting GeForce NOW rewards couldn't be simpler. All members are automatically opted in, so when a new reward drops, an email with all the details lands right in the inbox - no extra sign-ups or hoops to jump through.

Become a GeForce NOW member now, before even more rewards arrive in December.

This month, get ready to vault into the chaos with a Borderlands 4 reward just for Ultimate members - score a free Golden Key to use in Borderlands 4, the mayhem-fueled looter shooter packed with endless weapons, deadly enemies and over-the-top co-op action. Unlock treasure or new gear, and get ready for mayhem.

The reward is available through Sunday, Nov. 16, while supplies last. Members can keep an eye out for an email to redeem. Play Borderlands 4 on GeForce NOW, powered by GeForce RTX 5080-powered servers, optimized to deliver the highest frame rates and lowest latency for the ultimate looter-shooter experience.

Those who redeem the reward will also need a SHiFT account. Find more information on how to redeem the in-game reward.

Power Duo Play it steel smooth in the cloud. The right gear makes every GeForce NOW session feel next level. SteelSeries is bringing gamers the perfect setup - the Nimbus Cloud controller and Arctis Nova 5 wireless headset for the ultimate cloud gaming experience.

The Nimbus Cloud is the world's first true dual mode cloud controller, seamlessly switching between mobile and full size wireless modes. With up to 20 hours of battery life, built in Bluetooth and universal phone compatibility, the controller lets gamers play comfortably from anywhere.

The Arctis Nova 5 delivers crisp, customized sound with 200+ pro tuned audio presets for titles like Fortnite, Apex Legends and Minecraft. Its 60 hour battery life, dual wireless (2.4 GHz + Bluetooth) connection and USB C dongle make it perfect for extended GeForce NOW sessions across devices.

Keep an eye on the GeForce NOW X account as SteelSeries and GeForce NOW are giving away a few Nimbus Cloud controllers and Arctis Nova 5 headsets through Thursday, Oct. 30.

Steam Next, Play Now Install-to-play, no install stress. Install-to-Play is shaking things up for GeForce NOW premium members. The new feature brings more than 2,200 opted-in Steam titles straight into the cloud library - making it easier than ever to stream games, ranging from hidden indie gems to fan-favorite hits, all powered by a GeForce RTX rig in the cloud.

That means quirky roguelikes, cozy builders and stylish action adventures are instantly playable at their best. It's all about giving members more freedom to dive into fresh favorites without waiting for them to be added to the cloud.

And with Steam Next Fest running through Monday, Oct. 20, it's the perfect time to discover upcoming titles and try demos firsthand. Demos for Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus II, The Legend of Khiimori, The Oversight Bureau, Skate Story, Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era are just a few available from the Steam Next Fest to try, streaming from a GeForce RTX gaming rig in the cloud.

Look for a dedicated Steam Next Fest row in the GeForce NOW app, featuring games on sale and ready to play in the cloud.

Place to Call Home With the cloud comes the new dawn. Published by Mainframe Industries, Pax Dei is a massively multiplayer social sandbox set in a rich medieval landscape shaped by myth, community and craftsmanship. Arriving on GeForce NOW alongside its PC Game Pass debut, the world of Pax Dei invites players to build villages, trade with neighbors and test their strength against both human rivals and otherworldly forces.

The 1.0 release introduces new biomes, refined combat mechanics, expanded crafting systems and a more dynamic, player-driven economy where every creation and conquest leaves a mark. The world feels more vibrant, interconnected and alive than ever.

Stream the game instantly from the cloud with GeForce NOW - no installs, patches or loading screens standing in the way of adventure. Members can experience seamless access to the game's evolving world at launch. Banners rise faster, battles begin sooner and legends are forged without delay.

Let's Play Today A new level of combat. The iconic fighting game Street Fighter evolves to a whole new level with Ultra Street Fighter IV. Continuing the tradition of excellence the series is known for, five new characters and six new stages have been added for even more fighting mayhem, with rebalanced gameplay and original modes topping off this ultimate offering.
