GeForce NOW Raises the Game at the Game Developers Conference

GeForce NOW is bringing the game to the Game Developers Conference (GDC), running this week in San Francisco. While developers build the future of gaming, GeForce NOW is delivering it to gamers. The latest updates bring smoother performance, easier game discovery and a fresh lineup of blockbuster titles to the cloud.

Game discoverability gets a boost with new in app labels for connected accounts for Xbox Game Pass and Ubisoft+. It'll be easier than ever to see titles already available through linked subscriptions, so members can seamlessly jump into games they already own.

Virtual reality gets a smooth upgrade - supported devices now stream at 90 frames per second (fps), up from 60 fps, delivering more responsive and immersive virtual reality (VR) experiences.

Account linking is also leveling up. Following Gaijin single sign-on announced at CES in January, GOG account linking and game library syncing are coming soon.

The GeForce NOW library continues to grow with new releases joining the cloud at launch: CONTROL Resonant and Samson: A Tyndalston Story. Plus, select Xbox titles will join the Install-to-Play library.

In addition, there's a lineup of five new games to catch this week, including Capcom's Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection, on top of the latest update for Fortnite.

Gaming Is Buzzing GeForce NOW is rolling into GDC with an easier way to keep track of titles, as well as performance upgrades and a growing lineup of major titles ready to stream at launch.

Keeping track of which game lives on which service can be tricky. In App labels - coming soon to GeForce NOW for connected subscriptions - will help make it simple for members to know exactly what games they can play on GeForce NOW. Once a member connects their Xbox Game Pass Account or Ubisoft+ account, clear labels will appear directly on the game art inside the GeForce NOW app - eliminating guesswork and making it easy to see exactly what's available to play from their game subscription services.

Set it and forget it. Account linking is expanding too. On top of Gaijin single sign-on, GeForce NOW is adding GOG account linking and game library syncing in the coming months.

Smooth moves. Virtual reality is also getting an upgrade. Starting Thursday, March 19, VR devices that GeForce NOW supports, including Apple Vision Pro, Meta Quest and Pico devices, will stream at 90 fps for Ultimate members, an increase from 60 fps. The higher frame rate enhances smoothness, responsiveness and realism across every session - whether gamers are chasing enemies through neon-lit streets or exploring far flung alien worlds.

GeForce NOW's Install to Play library is also expanding with select Xbox titles, including Brutal Legend from Double Fine Productions and Contrast from Compulsion Games. These additions bring more flexibility for members to download and install their owned games alongside streaming favorites.

That's just the start. Highly anticipated games are headed to the cloud at launch:

Bending reality. CONTROL Resonant - Remedy's upcoming action adventure role-playing game (RPG) that blends supernatural powers with a warped Manhattan facing a reality-bending cosmic threat.

Unravel a family story steeped in myths. Samson: A Tyndalston Story - the game from Liquid Swords is a gritty action brawler, set in the city of Tyndalston, launching on PC.

Free to Save the World Chaos in the cloud. Fortnite's original adventure is back in the spotlight - and soon, it'll free to play. Fortnite first launched in 2017 as a story-driven co op experience, and on Thursday, April 16, the Save the World update will officially be free to play for all players. Pre-registration begins on Thursday, March 12.
