GeForce NOW Brings Higher Resolution and Frame Rates for Browser Streaming, Adds 6 New Titles

by Rainier on Aug. 18, 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 7 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.

Class is in session this GFN Thursday as GeForce NOW makes the up-grade with support for higher resolutions and frame rates in Chrome browser on PC. It’s the easiest way to spice up a boring study session.

When the lecture is over, dive into the six games joining the GeForce NOW library this week, where new adventure always awaits.

The Perfect Study Break

All work and no play isn’t the GeForce NOW way. No one should be away from their games, even if they’re going back to school. GeForce NOW streams the best PC games across nearly all devices, including low-powered PCs with a Chrome or Edge browser.

RTX 3080 members can now level up their browser gameplay at up to 1440p and 120 frames per second. No app install is required — just open a Chrome or Edge browser on PC, go to play.geforcenow.com, select these new resolutions and refresh rates from the GeForce NOW Settings menu, and jump into games in seconds, with less friction or downloads.

It’s never been easier to explore the more than 1,300 titles in the GeForce NOW library. Have some downtime during lab work? Sneak in a round of Apex Legends. Need a break from a boring textbook? Take a trip to Tevyat in Genshin Impact.

Stay connected with friends for multiplayer — like in Path of Exile’s latest expansion, “Lake of Kalandra” — so even if making your next moves at different schools, the squad can stick together to get into the gaming action.
