GeForce NOW Adds 14 New Titles This Week

by Rainier on July 29, 2021 @ 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 14 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 2.0.

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.

Members can look forward to 14 games — including Evil Genius 2: World Domination from Rebellion and Escape From Naraka which features RTX for Founders and Priority members — joining the GeForce NOW library this week. Team17’s Hell Let Loose, already streaming on GeForce NOW, has left early access with the introduction of the Soviet forces on the eastern front.

Getting Rebellious

Ready to take over the world? This GFN Thursday, stream several exciting titles from Rebellion — the Award-winning British independent studio. Games include Evil Genius 2: World Domination, Evil Genius, Battlezone: Combat Commander and Zombie Army 4: Dead War.

Be the best bad guy you can be in Evil Genius 2: World Domination (Steam). Construct an evil lair, train your minions to carry out nefarious plans and fight against the Forces of Justice with an array of traps to achieve global domination in this satirical spy-fi lair builder game.

Members can also look forward to the original Evil Genius coming to the cloud this week, as well as Battlezone: Combat Commander for space shooting intergalactic battles. And gamers can sink their teeth into Zombie Army 4: Dead War for the fight against the undead Armageddon. With all of these new additions, more gamers now can play these awesome titles from Rebellion.

“GeForce NOW gives us a great opportunity to provide access to our catalog of games to even more gamers,” said Matt Jeffery, Chief Strategy Officer at Rebellion. “NVIDIA makes onboarding games to the cloud a simple process, helping us bring our games to players on low-powered or incompatible devices, with the power of a real gaming rig.”

These newest additions join a host of other Rebellion titles available to stream on GeForce NOW, including Sniper Elite 3, Sniper Elite 4 and Sniper Elite V2 Remastered for players who aim to have a good time with a stealth story. Plus more undead action in the Zombie Army Trilogy and an adventure full of puzzles, traps and mummies in Strange Brigade that's too good to keep under wraps.

Heating Things Up

The front line is calling. Hell Let Loose (Steam) from Team17 has left early access and is streaming in open access on GeForce NOW.

Charge into battle in this hardcore World War II first-person shooter with epic battles and players filling roles of infantry, tanks, artillery and the dynamically shifting front line. Battle across more than nine maps modelled on real-life locales. Fight in iconic battles from the Western Front, including Carentan, Omaha Beach, Foy and more. Members can experience the chaos of all-out war and stream Hell Let Loose with GeForce NOW this week.

Members can also check out other popular titles from Team17 in the GeForce NOW library, including multiplayer games like Overcooked! and Overcooked! 2 and Golf with Friends for gamers looking to play with friends. Or experience a variety of RPGs with the cozy and creative Hokko Life, the pirate adventure King of the Seas, and the alien world of Planet Alpha.

Up This Week

As always, GFN Thursday means more games. This week, members can journey to a nightmarish temple in Escape from Naraka and save their beloved from an evil demon of legend.

Complete challenges, unlock the secrets of the temple and use unique abilities to confront terrifying enemies and escape the temple. Founders and Priority members can play Escape from Naraka on GeForce NOW with beautifully ray-traced reflections, ray-traced shadows and RTX Global Illumination.

The complete list of 14 titles coming to the cloud this week is as follows:
