This GFN Thursday recaps the latest cloud announcements from the CES trade show, including GeForce RTX gaming expansion across popular devices such as Steam Deck, Apple Vision Pro spatial computers, Meta Quest 3 and 3S, and Pico mixed-reality devices.
Gamers in India will also be able to access their PC gaming library at GeForce RTX 4080 quallity with an Ultimate membership for the first time in the region. This follows expansion in Chile and Columbia with GeForce NOW Alliance partner Digevo.
More AAA gaming is on the way, with highly anticipated titles DOOM: The Dark Ages and Avowed joining GeForce NOW's extensive library of over 2,100 supported titles when they launch on PC later this year.
Plus, no GFN Thursday is complete without new games. Get ready for six new titles joining the cloud this week.
Head in the Clouds CES 2025 is coming to a close, but GeForce NOW members still have lots to look forward to.
Members will be able to play over 2,100 titles from the GeForce NOW cloud library at GeForce RTX quality on Valve's popular Steam Deck device with the launch of a native GeForce NOW app, coming later this year. Steam Deck gamers can gain access to all the same benefits as GeForce RTX 4080 GPU owners with a GeForce NOW Ultimate membership, including NVIDIA DLSS 3 technology for the highest frame rates and NVIDIA Reflex for ultra-low latency.
GeForce NOW delivers a stunning streaming experience, no matter how Steam Deck users choose to play, whether in handheld mode for high dynamic range (HDR)-quality graphics, connected to a monitor for up to 1440p 120 frames per second HDR, or hooked up to a TV for big-screen streaming at up to 4K 60 fps.
GeForce NOW members can take advantage of RTX ON with the Steam Deck for photorealistic gameplay on supported titles, as well as HDR10 and SDR10 when connected to a compatible display for richer, more accurate color gradients.
Get your head in the clouds. Get immersed in a new dimension of big-screen gaming. In collaboration with Apple, Meta and ByteDance, NVIDIA is expanding GeForce NOW cloud gaming to Apple Vision Pro spatial computers, Meta Quest 3 and 3S, and Pico virtual- and mixed-reality devices - with all the bells and whistles of NVIDIA technologies, including ray tracing and NVIDIA DLSS.
Have a hell of a time in the cloud. In addition, NVIDIA will launch the first GeForce RTX-powered data center in India this year, making gaming more accessible around the world. This follows the recent launch of GeForce NOW in Colombia and Chile - operated by GeForce NOW Alliance partner Digevo - as well as Thailand coming soon - to be operated by GeForce NOW Alliance partner Brothers Picture.
Game On AAA content from celebrated publishers is coming to the cloud. Avowed from Obsidian Entertainment, known for iconic titles such as Fallout: New Vegas, will join GeForce NOW. The cloud gaming platform will also bring DOOM: The Dark Ages from id Software - the legendary studio behind the DOOM franchise. These titles will be available at launch on PC this year.
Get ready to jump into the Living Lands. Avowed, a first-person fantasy role-playing game, will join the cloud when it launches on PC on Tuesday, Feb. 18. Take on the role of an Aedyr Empire envoy tasked with investigating a mysterious plague. Freely combine weapons and magic - harness dual-wield wands, pair a sword with a pistol or opt for a more traditional sword-and-shield approach. In-game companions - which join the players' parties - have unique abilities and storylines that can be influenced by gamers' choices.
Have a hell of a time in the cloud. DOOM: The Dark Ages is the single-player, action first-person shooter prequel to the critically acclaimed DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal. Play as the DOOM Slayer, the legendary demon-killing warrior fighting endlessly against Hell. Experience the epic cinematic origin story of the DOOM Slayer's rage in 2025.
Shiny New Games Look for the following games available to stream in the cloud this week:
Marvel Rivals comes to the cloud.
