NVIDIA Adds 11 Titles To GeForce NOW, Trial For Chromebook Owners

by Rainier on Oct. 22, 2020 @ 6:00 a.m. PDT

GeForce NOW taps into the thriving PC gaming ecosystem by streaming games from NVIDIA GPUs in the cloud, adding 11 new titles to GeForce NOW.

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 2.0.

The GeForce NOW commitment to growing our library of instantly accessible games for our members every week continues with this week’s installment of Game Ready on GeForce NOW Thursdays.

In addition to this week’s Game Ready on GeForce NOW release, eligible Chromebook owners can get three free months of GeForce NOW when they upgrade to Founders with a new perk.

If you’ve been thinking about buying a new Chromebook, or have a Chromebook you’re already using, we’ve got great gaming news! Between now and December 31, 2020, qualifying Chromebook owners who sign up for a new GeForce NOW Founders membership get three months free!

We’re excited to offer this perk to Chromebook users, and help them turn their devices into GeForce-powered gaming rigs. The perk is rolling out this week in the US, and will be available in Canada and Europe in the coming weeks. You can visit the Chromebook perks page to check eligibility and take advantage of the offer.

The perk is only available for new GeForce NOW Founders memberships and will require a Chromebook released in June 2017 or newer. Additional information, including how to redeem the 3-month perk, will be available on the Chromebook perk page.
