GeForce NOW Adding 60 Games In October Including Forza and Alan Wake 2, Assassin's Creed Mirage And 28 Others This Week

by Rainier on Oct. 5, 2023 @ 6:00 a.m. PDT

GeForce NOW taps into the thriving PC gaming ecosystem by streaming games from NVIDIA GPUs in the cloud, this week adding 29 new titles to its library.

When you fire up your favorite game, you’re playing it instantly. That’s what it means to be Game Ready on GeForce NOW. The experience has been optimized for cloud gaming and includes Game Ready Driver performance improvements. NVIDIA manages the game updates and patches. And when a game supports RTX, you can play it on GeForce NOW with beautifully ray-traced graphics and DLSS 2/3.

The GeForce NOW library is ever-growing. In an effort to help spotlight the games that are coming to the service, we’re moving to a monthly cadence for announcing new instant access games. Games will continue to be released every week – with new game launches available day-and-date, and back catalog games released each Thursday – but our members, and your readers, will now be able to learn about what’s coming a little further in advance.

October brings more than falling leaves and pumpkin spice lattes for GeForce NOW members. Get ready for nearly 60 new games to stream, including Forza Motorsport and 16 more PC Game Pass titles.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage leads 29 new games to hit the GeForce NOW library this week. In addition, catch a challenge to earn in-game rewards for World of Warship players.]

Leap Into the Cloud

It’s not an illusion — Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Mirage launches in the cloud this week. Mirage was created as an homage to the first Assassin’s Creed games and pays tribute to the series’ well-loved roots.

Join the powerful proto-Assassin order — the Hidden Ones — as a 17-year-old street thief named Basim Ibn Is’haq as he learns to become a master assassin. Stalk the streets of a bustling and historically accurate ninth-century Baghdad — the perfect urban setting to seamlessly parkour across rooftops, scale tall towers and flee guards while uncovering a conspiracy that threatens the city and Basim’s future
destiny.

Take a Leap of Faith into a GeForce NOW Ultimate membership and explore this new open world at up to 4K resolution and 120 frames per second. Ultimate members get exclusive access to GeForce RTX 4080 servers in the cloud, making it the easiest upgrade around.

No Tricks, Only Treats

Don’t be spooked — GeForce NOW has plenty of treats for members this month. More PC Game Pass games are coming soon to the cloud, including Forza Motorsport from Turn 10 Studios and Xbox Game Studios and the Dishonored series from Arkane and Bethesda.

Catch some action (with a little stealth, magic and combat mixed in) with the Dishonored franchise. Dive into a struggle of power and revenge that revolves around the assassination of the Empress of the Isles. Members can follow the whole story starting with the original Dishonored game, up through the latest entry, Dishonored: Death of an Outsider, when the series launches in the cloud this month.

Jump into all the action with an Ultimate or Priority account today, for higher performance and faster access to stream over 1,700 games.
