GeForce NOW Adds Monster Hunter: World to the Cloud As Part of 11 New Games

by Rainier on Dec. 21, 2023 @ 6:00 a.m. PST

GeForce NOW taps into the thriving PC gaming ecosystem by streaming games from NVIDIA GPUs in the cloud, this week adding 13 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 2/3.

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.

Time to gear up, hunters — Capcom’s Monster Hunter: World joins the GeForce NOW library, bringing members the ultimate hunting experience on any device.

It’s all part of an adventurous week, with 11 new games joining the cloud gaming service.

A Whole New World

Join the Fifth Fleet on an epic adventure to the New World, a land full of monstrous creatures, in the acclaimed action role-playing game (RPG) Monster Hunter: World. It’s the latest in the series to join the cloud, following Monster Hunter Rise.

Members can unleash their inner hunter and slay ferocious monsters in a living, breathing ecosystem. Explore the unique landscape and encounter diverse monster inhabitants in ferocious hunting battles. Hunt alone or with up to three other players, and use materials collected from fallen foes to craft new gear and take on bigger, badder beasts.

Step up to the Quest Board and hunt monsters in the cloud at up to 4K resolution and 120 frames per second as an Ultimate member — or discover the New World at ultrawide resolutions. Members don’t need to wait for downloads or worry about storage space, and can take the action with them across nearly all devices.

Surprise!

One of the best ways to stream top PC games on the go — even the stunning neon lights of Cyberpunk 2077 — is with a Chromebook Plus. NVIDIA invited Cyberpunk 2077 fans, well-versed on the graphics-intensive game, to try it out on an unknown, hidden system.

They were shocked to realize they were playing on a Chromebook Plus with GeForce NOW’s Ultimate tier.

NVIDIA brought the same activation to attendees of The Game Awards, one of the industry’s most-watched gaming award shows

With the ability to stream from powerful GeForce RTX 4080-powered servers in the cloud with the Ultimate tier — paired with the cloud gaming Chromebook Plus’ high refresh rates, high-resolution displays, gaming keyboards, fast WiFi 6 connectivity and immersive audio — it’s no surprise participants gave the same surprised and delighted response.

To experience the power of gaming on a Chromebook with GeForce NOW, Google and NVIDIA are offering Chromebook owners three free months of a premium GeForce NOW membership. Find more details on how to redeem the offer on the Chromebook Perks page.

Festival of Games

The latest update from opular open-world action RPG Genshin Impact from miHoYo is now available for members to stream. It brings two new characters, new events and a whole host of new features. Get to know the Geo Claymore character Navia, as well as Chevreuse, a new Pyro Polearm user, and more during the Fontinalia Festival event.
