Boots on the Ground: WARDOGS' Goes All Out on GeForce NOW at Early-Access Launch

Gear up: The latest PC games and major updates are ready to play on GeForce NOW this week. WARDOGS drops onto the cloud at early-access launch, alongside the Valheim 1.0 Deep North update and Bus Simulator 27 - part of nine new titles joining the cloud.

The newest PC releases can demand serious hardware, storage space and upgrade budgets. GeForce NOW puts GeForce RTX-powered performance in the cloud, so members can jump into the newest titles across supported devices without needing expensive PC upgrades to keep up.

From a 100-player tactical firefight to a frozen Viking frontier and a growing bus empire, every adventure is ready when members are - no downloads or storage management required.

Who Let the WARDOGS' Out?

Take on the Control Zone: WARDOGS launches on GeForce NOW today, bringing BULKHEAD's large-scale tactical first-person shooter to the cloud at early-access launch.

Up to 100 players across three teams battle to control randomized zones in a large-scale military sandbox, where tactical gunplay, combined-arms combat, building and destruction can change the course of a match.

There's no single route to victory. Outfit a loadout, coordinate a squad, fortify a strategic position or take the fight to the enemy in vehicles. Every team play action earns cash, giving players more ways to invest in gear and vehicles that can turn the tide.

Ultimate members can stream the fight with GeForce RTX 5080-class performance in the cloud for a tactical advantage. Pick up the battle across supported devices without waiting on a huge game install or clearing local storage first.

Ice, Ice in the Deep North, Baby

Sharpen the axes and raise the shields - Valheim has left early access with its 1.0 update, letting members stream the final biome in Iron Gate's Viking survival saga through Steam and Xbox Store.

Set sail for the Deep North, a frozen frontier filled with new enemies to face, weapons to craft and strongholds to build before the cold closes in. The 1.0 launch also arrives alongside new platform versions with full crossplay support, making it easier to rally the clan.

Whether returning to a long-running world on a PC or Mac or beginning a fresh voyage on a Steam Deck or Amazon Fire TV Stick, members can head to the Deep North across supported devices without waiting for downloads.

The Wheels on the Bus Go Round in the Cloud

The route to the top starts here. Hop into the driver's seat. Bus Simulator 27 is now streaming from GeForce NOW.

Drive a fleet of more than 45 officially licensed buses from 13 manufacturers through Felicia Bay, a sunny region with two cities, 20 districts and a full day-and-night cycle. Build routes, manage timetables and grow a successful bus company in Story, Career or Sandbox mode.

And there's even more to stream from the GeForce NOW library this week:

Halloween: The Game (New release on Steam, Sept. 8)
