GFN Thursday Adds Saints Row,' Genshin Impact' on Mobile With Touch Controls

25/08/2022

Some weeks, GFN Thursday reveals new or unique features. Other weeks, it's a cool reward. And every week, it offers its members new games.

This week, it's all of the above.

First, Saints Row marches into GeForce NOW. Be your own boss in the new reboot of the classic open-world criminal adventure series, now available to stream from nearly any device.

Plus, members asked, and we listened: Genshin Impact is now streaming to iOS, iPadOS and Android mobile devices with touch controls. It's part of the big Genshin Impact Version 3.0 update, adding a brand-new nation, characters and more.

But that's not all. Guild Wars 2 comes to Steam, and GeForce NOW members can celebrate with a free in-game reward. Dragons, anyone?

And don't forget about the 13 new games joining the GeForce NOW library, because the action never stops.

It's Good to Be the King(pin) Build a criminal empire and rise up from Newbie to Boss in Saints Row, streaming today for all GeForce NOW members.

The highly anticipated reboot of the Saints Row franchise follows the Saints, a group of three gang members turned friends who combine forces to take on three warring criminal gangs in the vibrant new city of Santo Ileso. Players can become whoever they want with the all-new Boss Factory. Customize characters, their weapons, vehicles and more in true Saints Row fashion.

Meet the new Saints. Stream every side hustle, criminal venture and blockbuster mission across PCs, Macs, SHIELD TVs, iOS Safari and Android mobile devices and more. Recruiting a friend on a low-powered device into your crew has never been easier.

Jump right into Santo Ileso. Plus, without any wait times for game downloads, members can jump right into Santo Ileso and spend more time being a boss. The game runs on AMD Threadripper Pro CPUs for GeForce NOW, allowing members to enjoy high-quality graphics. And RTX 3080 members get the added benefits of ultra-low latency, higher streaming frame rates, maximized eight-hour sessions and dedicated RTX 3080 servers.

Tap Into Tevyat With Genshin Impact' Version 3.0 Travelers rejoice: Genshin Impact is now streaming to iOS, iPadOS and Android mobile devices with touch controls.

The launch of game developer HoYoverse's free-to-play, open-world, action role-playing game on GeForce NOW has been hugely successful, and members can now continue their journeys with their PCs, Macs or Chromebooks.

Mobile touch controls for Genshin Impact are now available for all GeForce NOW members who prefer gaming on their phones and tablets or only have time to play on the go. Jump in to start playing at PC quality. No downloads or accessories needed - just fingers!

Tap into Tevyat. The timing for touch controls couldn't be better, as HoYoverse just released Genshin Impact's biggest update of the year, The Morn a Thousand Roses Brings. It adds Sumeru, the fourth of the game's seven major nations, and Dendro, the last of the game's seven-element system. A new nation to explore and Dendro playable characters to recruit for the first time ever - it's all available to stream on GeForce NOW from nearly any device.

Learn more about how to use touch controls for Genshin Impact on GeForce NOW.

Great things come in threes. Version 3.0 brings the massive region of Sumeru and three new characters from there. Dragons Are Coming Guild War 2 comes to Steam this week, and for a limited time members can redeem the Emblazoned Dragon Throne in-game reward for free. It's a heroic seat fit for an adventurer and another perk of being a GeForce NOW member.

Why sit in a standard chair when you could sit on a throne emblazoned with dragons? Getting membership rewards for streaming games on the cloud is easy. Log in to your NVIDIA account and select GEFORCE NOW from the header. Then, scroll down to REWARDS and click the UPDATE REWARDS SETTINGS button. Check the box in the dialogue window that shows up to start receiving special offers and in-game goodies.

Sign up for the GeForce NOW newsletter, including notifications for when rewards are available, by logging into your NVIDIA account and selecting PREFERENCES from the header. Check the Gaming & Entertainment box and GeForce NOW under topic preferences.

Non-Stop Action Dragons, dragons, dragons. Century: Age of Ashes is a free-to-play multiplayer dragon battle game. Check out the 13 new games available to stream on GeForce NOW this week:

Destiny 2 (New release on Epic Games Store)
