Building on Previous Collaborations

This latest update builds upon earlier improvements, including:

• The rollout of PC Game Pass and Microsoft Store titles on GeForce Now
• Account syncing to import games from the Microsoft Store to the GeForce Now library
• Integration of GeForce Now into Xbox game pages on Microsoft's web platform

Part of a Larger Partnership

These enhancements are made possible by a 10-year deal between Nvidia and Microsoft, allowing Nvidia to license Xbox PC games for use on GeForce Now. This agreement extends to Activision Blizzard titles, further expanding the potential game library.

Broader GeForce Now Improvements

Nvidia is using the Gamescom event in Germany to showcase additional upgrades to GeForce Now:

• The service now boasts over 600 titles, including recent additions like the Final Fantasy XVI demo and Black Myth: Wukong
• A new data center in Poland aims to reduce latency for Central European users
• Nvidia's ACE (Avatar Cloud Engine) technology for AI-driven NPCs will debut in the game Mecha Break, allowing players to have more dynamic conversations with in-game characters

As cloud gaming continues to evolve, Nvidia's focus on reducing friction and expanding features demonstrates its commitment to making GeForce Now a leading platform in the space.

The automatic sign-in feature for Xbox accounts on GeForce Now, launching on August 22, 2024, addresses a common user complaint by eliminating the need for repeated logins. This one-time setup is particularly beneficial for users streaming with controllers, avoiding cumbersome on-screen keyboard inputs. The integration builds upon NVIDIA's existing Xbox game library sync, allowing members to access their supported Xbox Game Pass and Microsoft Store titles through GeForce Now. With over 140 Xbox Game Pass titles now available for instant play, NVIDIA continues to expand its cloud gaming offerings, with upcoming titles like Star Wars Outlaws and Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks slated to join the service.
