Microsoft brings PC Game Pass to NVIDIA’s GeForce Now service

Microsoft

Microsoft is fulfilling its promise to make PC Game Pass available on NVIDIA’s GeForce Now service. The companies have revealed that Game Pass and Microsoft Store games will be streamable on GeForce Now from August 24th. Although not all games will work immediately, this will let Game Pass members enjoy titles like Deathloop and No Man’s Sky on NVIDIA’s platform.

It might seem strange to access one streaming service’s games through another, but there might be benefits. GeForce Now is designed for enthusiasts who want the best visual quality and low latency, with the Ultimate tier supporting 4K at 120 frames per second. So, Game Pass could perform better on GeForce Now than on other platforms if your PC and internet connection can handle it.

Microsoft made a deal with NVIDIA in February to bring Xbox games to GeForce Now for a decade, and the first game (Gears 5) launched in May. Meanwhile, Bethesda’s first games, such as Doom Eternal and the Wolfenstein reboots, appeared earlier this month. So, this new development simply adds more options to the existing collection.

The announcement can also be considered part of Microsoft’s effort to get regulatory approval for its Activision Blizzard acquisition. This could show that Microsoft won’t monopolize cloud gaming. The company also intends to sell Activision Blizzard game streaming rights to Ubisoft to address UK officials’ worries. It has also signed smaller cloud agreements in recent months.
