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.

Let the games begin — this GFN Thursday brings the highly anticipated Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III to the cloud, the first Activision title on GeForce NOW as part of the NVIDIA and Microsoft partnership.

It’s joined by Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Warzone — all three titles can be played from one central location via the Call of Duty logo on GeForce NOW.

And it’s the most wonderful time of the year — over 65 games are joining the GeForce NOW library in December, with 15 available to stream this week.

Plus, stream GeForce NOW on the go and get console-quality controls by simply snapping a mobile device into a Backbone One controller. For a limited time, Backbone is offering a 30% discount for premium GeForce NOW members starting today in the Rewards Portal. Free-level members can claim the discount starting Dec. 7.

The Lobby Awaits

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III returns as a direct sequel to the record-breaking Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and follows the story of Task Force 141 as they face off the ultimate threat.

Dig into the action-packed single-player campaign or head online to defeat the undead in an exciting open-world co-op experience that takes the Zombies mode that fans know and love to the next level. Those that prefer some multiplayer action can dip into a selection of Core Multiplayer maps from the 16 iconic launch maps of 2009’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 that are being brought over and modernized for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III.

Plus, stay tuned to GFN Thursday for when other legacy Call of Duty titles as well as additional supported devices (Android, SHIELD TV and TV) will be added to the cloud.

GeForce NOW Ultimate members can get the upper hand with NVIDIA DLSS 3 and Reflex to get the highest frame rates and lowest latencies for the smoothest gameplay by streaming from a GeForce RTX 4080 gaming rig in the cloud. Never worry about upgrading hardware or system specs again with GeForce NOW.
