Microsoft’s Xbox games for PC arrive on Nvidia GeForce Now: What this means for gamers?
Microsoft, back in February this year, inked a 10-year-deal with Nvidia in a bid to bring Xbox’s PC games to Nvidia’s GeForce NOW cloud gaming service. The partnership also included allowing gamers to stream Xbox PC titles from GeForce NOW to PCs, macOS, Chromebooks, smartphones and other devices. Now, almost two months later, the two companies have announced that the first set of Xbox’s PC games are coming to Nvidia’s GeForce Now game streaming service.
“Get ready for action — the first Xbox game title is now streaming from GeForce GPUs in the cloud directly to GeForce NOW members, with more to come later this month,” Nvidia wrote in a blog post.
The company said that Xbox exclusive Gears 5 is already available to Nvidia GeForce Now subscribers while three more games, which includes Deathloop, Grounded, and Pentiment, will be available to the players starting May 25.
However, Nvidia said that GeForce Now Priority members will be able to skip the wait and play Gears 5 or one of the other 1,600 supported titles at 1080p 60 frames per second. On the other hand, GeForce Now Priority members Ultimate members will be able to play games at up to 4K 120 fps, or up to 240 fps for ultra-low latency.
Nvidia said that going forward, all Xbox PC games that will be available on Nvidia GeForce Now will be announced via Nvidia’s GFN Thursday updates on its platform and official social media handles.
