GeForce NOW Brings Native 4K Streaming To LG Smart TVs, 7 New Titles This Week

by Rainier on April 13, 2023 @ 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.

A new adventure with publisher Bandai Namco Europe kicks off this GFN Thursday. Some of its popular titles lead seven new games joining the cloud this week.

Plus, gamers can play them on more devices than ever, with native 4K streaming for GeForce NOW available on select LG Smart TVs.

Better Together

Bandai Namco is no stranger to delivering hit games. And GeForce NOW delivers high-performance cloud game streaming, making it the ultimate way to play the publisher’s high-quality titles.

“Our collaboration with NVIDIA will allow more players to enjoy Bandai Namco titles like ‘Little Nightmares’ across their devices, thanks to the power of the GeForce NOW cloud,” said Anthony Macare, senior director of digital business and customer experience at Bandai Namco Europe.

It’s the perfect time to jump into the Little Nightmares series, the critically acclaimed puzzle-platformer
games set in a dark, nightmarish world. Confront childhood fears and help Six, a brave young girl escape
The Maw — a vast, mysterious vessel inhabited by corrupted souls looking for their next meal— in Little
Nightmares.

Then play as Mono, a boy with a paper bag on his head looking for answers, in Little Nightmares II. With Six as a guide, face a host of new threats on the way to discover the dark secrets of The Signal Tower. The Enhanced Edition of Little Nightmares II adds an extra layer of eerie realism with RTX ON, which Ultimate and Priority members can select after launching the game from Steam.

Little Nightmares and Little Nightmares II, Get Even and 11-11 Memories Retold are the first of many Bandai Namco titles arriving to the cloud this week.

Life’s Good in 4K

Head on over to gaming on the big screen with LG Smart TVs. The Gaming Shelf on LG 2020-2022 TVs and the Game Quick Card on 2023 TVs already prominently feature GeForce NOW titles right on the home page, providing members with effortless discoverability to stream over 1,000 games directly from their LG Smart TVs.

To further enhance the user experience for Ultimate members, native 4K streaming through GeForce NOW is freshly available on select LG 2023 Smart TVs such as the flagship OLED B3, C3 and G3 models. Ultimate members in over 80 supported countries can jump right into their favorite PC titles in pixel-perfect 4K resolution with exclusive access to GeForce NOW’s fastest servers and eight-hour gaming sessions. Members won’t ever need to leave the spot in front of their LG TVs, except maybe to stock up on more snacks.

LG Smart TVs feature lifelike picture quality and high refresh rates so members can enjoy stunning games like Dying Light 2 and Cyberpunk 2077 in 4K — no need for a console nor worries about hardware requirements. It’s one of the easiest ways to try out the new Ray Tracing: Overdrive Mode update for Cyberpunk 2077, which adds full ray tracing, or path tracing, further enhancing the visual fidelity of Night City’s neon-soaked streets and beyond. The update is available now, so upgrade to Ultimate today to check out all the streaming goodness.
