GeForce NOW Adds 'Command & Conquer Remastered Collection' And 8 Other Titles

by Rainier on July 28, 2022 @ 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 9 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.

Take a trip down memory lane this week with an instantly recognizable classic, Command & Conquer Remastered Collection, joining the nearly 20 Electronic Arts games streaming from the GeForce NOW library.

Speaking of remastered, GeForce NOW members can enhance their gameplay further with improved resolution scaling in the 2.0.43 app update. When the feature is turned on, a game’s resolution will match that of the screen it’s being played on, whether PC, Mac or SHIELD TV, for better image quality. Check if your system supports Enhanced mode on this page.

Canadian gamers across British Columbia and Alberta now get a two-year NVIDIA GeForce NOW Priority Membership for free when they sign-up for the TELUS PureFibre Ultimate Gamer bundle at $120 CAD per month for the first two years. For more information and to sign up, visit here.

Plus, explore the nine new titles streaming from the GeForce NOW library this week.

Embark on Your Greatest Exploit

Kane lives! The game that defined the real-time strategy genre is back, remastered in glorious 4K resolution and streaming at GeForce quality from the cloud. Lead one of two playable factions — the Global Defense Initiative or the Brotherhood of Nod — through 100+ campaign missions while building up your base, collecting resources and crushing the competition.

The collection includes the critically acclaimed titles Command & Conquer and Command & Conquer: Red Alert, along with three expansions, rebuilt multiplayer, a modernized user interface, a map editor feature, bonus footage gallery and over seven hours of remastered music.

Developed by former Westwood Studios team members at Petroglyph Games, alongside the Command & Conquer player community, the collection maintains the “easy-to-play, difficult-to-master” quality that fans know and love about the franchise.

Stream the collection across nearly all devices, even on Macs. RTX 3080 members can command up to 4K resolution and 60 frames per second from the PC and Mac apps, in the living room on the updated SHIELD TV, and on mobile devices, including the ability to stream at 120 frames per second on 120Hz Android phones. They can also conquer opponents with ultra-low latency for the best gaming sessions.

New Games on the Block

After a dose of revamped nostalgia, members can also check out the new Season 3 ‘Summer Break’ event of Ubisoft’s Riders Republic, or the newest content update for Hunt: Showdown, The Prescient Night.

If that’s not enough, here are the nine new games arriving to the cloud this week:
