Unlike other services, NVIDIA GeForce Now doesn't sell games directly. Instead, it offers you the equivalent of a high-end PC to play your owned games through the cloud. It's perfect for gaming handhelds, and it supports your existing Steam, Epic Games, Ubisoft, and Xbox PC (including Game Pass) libraries.
🎯 Perfect for: Gamers who desire top-tier performance without breaking the bank on a gaming PC and already own a hefty collection of games on Steam, Xbox, and other compatible services.
🔥 Avoid if: Your internet service provider throttles speeds or you have high latency. Cloud gaming might not provide a smooth experience for you.

Why Nvidia GeForce Now is My Go-To Gaming Service
NVIDIA GeForce Now has wormed its way into my regular gaming rotation. And I never thought I'd say this, but I much prefer it over Xbox's own cloud offerings.
I was skeptical about how much I would use it given my Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription and its own cloud gaming options. But Nvidia proves that it can outshine Xbox. Whenever a game is available on GeForce Now, I almost always choose it over Xbox's cloud service.
I started using it with my Logitech G Cloud, and its comfort drew me in. When Baldur's Gate 3 launched, I was desperate to play, but it wasn't available on Xbox, and the experience on Steam Deck left a lot to be desired. This was the first time I took an interest in NVIDIA GeForce Now, and its turn-based gameplay made it a perfect fit.
I've also played a lot of Diablo 4 through GeForce Now on the G Cloud, especially since Xbox Cloud Gaming can't offer it due to the CMA ruling. The game's regular updates take forever to install on my Steam Deck, so being able to jump straight into play via NVIDIA is a huge plus.
I've even taken to using NVIDIA GeForce Now on devices that are capable of running local games, like my Steam Deck and my Razer Blade 14. In the case of the Steam Deck, following some simple instructions on NVIDIA's site to install the app in Desktop mode saves significant battery life on my handheld.
Recently, I discovered that it also supports PC Game Pass titles, so I can play games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and DOOM: The Dark Ages, two titles that would certainly push the Deck to its limits if run locally.

My Razer Blade 14 is built for gaming, but extended sessions can make it run hot, which isn't ideal for its longevity. By using GeForce NOW, I can enjoy high-end gaming without putting unnecessary strain on my laptop.
I tell myself my subscription is preserving my laptop's lifespan, but maybe I'm just delusionally justifying the expense to myself. But hey, you won't need to do that because you can get it for 40% off with this offer!
Digging Deeper into the 'Performance' Tier
I've shared my personal reasons for loving GeForce Now because I'm more about convenience than raw specs. But if it's the hard numbers and features you're after, here's everything you need to know about the Performance tier included with this subscription.
- The Performance tier is the renamed version of what used to be called the Priority tier.
- It supports 1440p resolution and ultrawide monitors. Make sure to update your resolution settings in the GeForce Now app to take full advantage.
- The cloud rig powering this tier is roughly equivalent to an Intel i5-9600 CPU paired with an RTX 2080 or RTX 3060 GPU.
- This tier makes use of NVIDIA RTX features, which significantly enhances the visuals in supported games.
- You are limited to 6-hour length sessions, but there's no limit to how many sessions a user can start in a day.
All in all, the Performance tier strikes a solid balance between power and affordability, especially at the discounted price of $29.99 for six months. It's a great way to experience Nvidia GeForce Now and decide if upgrading to the more premium Ultimate tier is right for you later on.
- Whether you're using a desktop, laptop, or gaming handheld, NVIDIA GeForce Now's cloud-based gaming service allows you to play your owned games from various platforms like Steam, Epic Games, Ubisoft, and Xbox PC (including Game Pass).
- For tech enthusiasts and gamers looking to enhance their gaming experience without the need for a high-end PC, the Performance Tier of NVIDIA GeForce Now offers a mid-range solution that supports 1440p resolution and ultrawide monitors, delivering a performance comparable to an Intel i5-9600 CPU with an RTX 2080 or RTX 3060 GPU.
- If you're curious about NVIDIA GeForce Now but haven't tried it yet, the service's 6-month performance membership plan is currently available at a 40% discount, offering a great opportunity to experiment with the platform.
- For those who have an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription and have recently found that some games aren't available on their platform or are experiencing performance issues on their local gaming devices, integrating NVIDIA GeForce Now into their gaming setup allows for a seamless cloud gaming experience with reduced strain on their primary devices.
