NVIDIA\u2019s <\/span>Gamescom announcements<\/span><\/a> are revealing what\u2019s next for <\/span>GeForce NOW<\/span><\/a>, with new ways to play, more supported devices and platforms, and even more big PC games headed to the cloud.<\/span><\/p>\n

New NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 technology controls give members more ways to fine-tune gameplay, while expanded support for new Steam devices, GOG single sign-on, <\/span>Firefox<\/span><\/a> browser support and more Amazon Fire TV devices continue broadening where and how GeForce RTX-powered PC gaming can be enjoyed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gamescom is also bringing a blockbuster lineup of PC games to GeForce NOW. <\/span>CONTROL Resonant<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Gears of War: E-Day<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Onimusha: Way of the Sword<\/span><\/i>,<\/span> The Blood of Dawnwalker<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>STAR WARS Zero Company<\/span><\/i> are all coming to the cloud at launch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For a limited time, members can also get <\/span>CONTROL Resonant<\/span><\/i> with the purchase of a 12-month GeForce NOW <\/span>Ultimate membership<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Gamescom extras don\u2019t stop there. To celebrate, GeForce NOW is giving away more than 40 prizes in our <\/span>Community Giveaway<\/span><\/a> \u2014 including gaming hardware and GeForce NOW Ultimate memberships.<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s even more fun to come. Check out the list of <\/span>13<\/span> games joining the <\/span>GeForce NOW library<\/span><\/a> this week.<\/span><\/p>\n

Next-Level Cloud Gaming<\/b><\/h2>\n
\"DLSS
More ways to choose how to play.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This fall, GeForce NOW is introducing new <\/span>NVIDIA DLSS 4.5<\/span><\/a> controls in the cloud, giving Ultimate members more choice over how supported games look and perform, even without the latest hardware. Powered by NVIDIA RTX graphics, each control offers something different: DLSS Super Resolution sharpens image quality, while Dynamic Frame Generation delivers lower latency and stutter for smoother streaming, and Ray Reconstruction enhances ray-traced visuals. Together, these technologies make it easier to tune supported games for image quality, responsiveness or a preferred balance between the two.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Stay tuned to GFN Thursdays for details about best practices for enabling DLSS 4.5 overrides and how Dynamic Frame Generation can help Ultimate members enable more graphic settings while still getting smooth streaming.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"GeForce
Stream full steam ahead with the Steam ecosystem.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

GeForce NOW is also adding community-requested support for Steam Machine with Steam Controller later this fall, and later for Windows and macOS, delivering more ways to play and making it even easier for longtime Steam players to jump into the cloud using familiar hardware. The additions build on existing <\/span>Steam Deck support<\/span><\/a> and expand compatibility across the Steam ecosystem.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"GOG
Get your GOG on with one click into the library.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Launching GOG games just got even easier. With <\/span>GOG single sign-on<\/span><\/a> now available on GeForce NOW, members can securely link their account once, automatically sync supported games and launch them without having to sign in to GOG again \u2014 all with a single click.<\/span><\/p>\n

With fewer steps between opening the app, skipping any downloads and jumping into gameplay, it\u2019s another way GeForce NOW continues streamlining access to PC gaming libraries, making it easier to play the GOG library of games on TV platforms since gamers are automatically logged into their GOG accounts.<\/span><\/p>\n

Find popular titles, like <\/span>Cyberpunk 2077<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt<\/span><\/i>, in the app in the dedicated GOG row. Or search and filter for GOG games, then jump into supported titles from almost anywhere \u2014 all streamed from the cloud. Check back on GFN Thursdays for the latest games joining the GeForce NOW library, including newly supported games streaming from GOG.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"GeForce
Outfox nearly any device with GeForce RTX gaming.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Plus, GeForce NOW is now officially <\/span>supported on Firefox<\/span><\/a>, expanding browser access across all major Windows browsers. Members can jump into supported PC games directly from Firefox without downloading a dedicated app. Ultimate members can enjoy GeForce RTX-powered gaming at up to 1440p and 120 frames per second.<\/span><\/p>\n

Simply download the <\/span>latest version of Firefox<\/span><\/a> and visit <\/span>play.geforcenow.com<\/span><\/a> to get started. The cloud handles downloads, installs and updates, keeping local storage free while games stay ready to play in the cloud.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"GeForce
Bring the fire to living rooms with GeForce NOW.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

GeForce NOW is expanding support to additional <\/span>Amazon Fire TV devices<\/span><\/a>. GeForce NOW first launched on Fire TV devices earlier this year, and will soon expand to the Fire TV Stick 4K Select, a 4K streaming stick that\u2019s ready to game right out of the box. Streaming from the cloud means supported PC games are ready to play using a compatible controller, making it easy to enjoy GeForce NOW on the biggest screen in the house with even more options to play from the comfort of the couch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And that\u2019s not all the awesomeness from Amazon. Later this year, Fire TV users will be able to purchase GeForce NOW memberships directly through Amazon, creating a more seamless path from device setup to gameplay.<\/span><\/p>\n

These new features will arrive alongside some of the biggest games coming to the cloud throughout the year.<\/span><\/p>\n
