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.
The season of hot sun and longer days is here, so stay inside this summer with 20 games joining GeForce NOW in June. Or stream across devices by the pool, from grandma’s house or in the car — whichever way, GeForce NOW has you covered.
Titles from the Age of Empires series are the next Xbox games to roll out to GeForce NOW, giving members plenty to do this summer, especially with over 1,600 games part of the GeForce NOW library.
Expand Your Empire
NVIDIA released the first Xbox games to the cloud last month as part of its ongoing partnership with Microsoft. Now it’s the first to bring a smash hit Xbox series to the cloud with Ensemble Studios’ Age of Empires titles.
Since the first release in 1997, Age of Empires has established itself as one of the longest-running real-time strategy (RTS) series in existence. The critically acclaimed RTS series puts players in control of an entire empire with the goal of expanding and evolving to become a flourishing civilization.
All four of the franchise’s latest Steam versions will join GeForce NOW later this month: Age of Empires: Definitive Edition, Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition and Age of Empires IV: Anniversary Edition. Each title will also support new content and updates, like upcoming seasons or the recently released “Return of Rome” expansion for Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition.
Members will be able to rule from PC, Mac, Chromebooks and more when the Definitive Editions of these games join the GeForce NOW library later this month. Upgrade to Priority membership to skip the waiting lines and experience extended gaming sessions for those long campaigns. Or go for an Ultimate membership to conquer enemies at up to 4K resolution and up to eight-hour sessions.
Game on the Go
Now available in Europe, the Logitech G Cloud gaming handheld supports GeForce NOW, giving gamers a way to stream their PC library from the cloud. It features a seven-inch, full-HD touchscreen with a 60Hz refresh rate and precision controls to stream over 1,600 games in the GeForce NOW library.
Pick up the device and get one month of Priority membership for free to celebrate the launch, from now until Thursday, June 22.
