![]() ![]() Together, we’re accelerating access to players around the globe by letting them choose how and when they game. This is just the beginning stage of our forward-thinking 10-year partnership with NVIDIA to make PC games from Xbox Game Studios and Bethesda available to their GeForce NOW members. If only all of their competitors were embracing it.We’re thrilled to share that starting today, NVIDIA GeForce NOW cloud gaming members in the U.K., the U.S., the European Union and around the world can stream Gears 5, and on May 25 will be able to enjoy fan-favorites Deathloop, Grounded, and Pentiment. It also underlines Microsoft's commitment to supporting gamers whichever platforms they want to play on. The ideal endgame would be access to Game Pass PC games through Steam, but this is at least a happy medium. I don't have to go to my desk and fire up my gaming PC nor do I have to do the same to use my Series X. The same reason for using the Steam Deck a lot. I've been trying to get more involved with cloud gaming over console or PC because it's just a lot of the time more convenient. I can use my laptop or PC, neither of which have an RTX 4080 inside, to play those games how I want to play them in high resolution and high frame rate. GeForce Now gives me that option if I wish. There are some games I just want to play that way, and I'd still rather buy them on PC than just make do. In part, that's down to the lack of keyboard and mouse support. Sure, I already subscribe to Game Pass so I can play Xbox games in the cloud, but it's still never been my favorite place to play. I've been a little down on it since Google shuttered Stadia, but this news has picked up my mood again. What I'm most excited about in this deal is that cloud gaming as a whole is taking another step forward. ![]() (Image credit: Windows Central | Zachary Boddy) Another exciting step for cloud gamingĬloud gamers are getting some real choice and real developments thanks to Xbox and NVIDIA. Publishers just have to agree to their games being on there.Īnd, you know, more Xbox games on Steam means more Xbox games on Steam Deck, too. You're essentially just renting a powerful PC in a server room somewhere and it allows access to the entire Steam library. The way GeForce Now works means that Steam is definitely the easiest way and, let's face it, the way most would want it anyway. It would certainly be better than building an integration for the Microsoft Store.Ĭall of Duty is already there, too, having recently launched. Steam is integrated with GeForce Now, though, and so it seems to make sense that as part of this deal this would be the route Microsoft takes to put all its games on the service. Lord knows I've been frustrated with that enough myself. And there are still sometimes performance issues with it. If you've spent years building up a library on Steam, the Microsoft Store is just an inconvenience. The truth remains that many just don't like or want to use the Microsoft Store. Microsoft has been opening up to Steam more and more in recent times, which has been awesome. Buying Xbox games through Steam will put them on any device supporting GeForce Now. ![]()
