The company boasts that “the majority of gamers in GeForce Now-supported regions will see sub-30-millisecond network latency.”
The library will also include Borderlands 4, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and The Outer Worlds 2 after their release, among many other new AAA games that will join the library of the subscription plan, pushing the total games to over 2,300. Nvidia also said that this number will double with the introduction of Install-to-Play, allowing players to bring their “PC collections to the cloud with the new cloud storage.”
The Blackwell Architecture upgrade to GeForce Now will only be available in the Ultimate tier of the subscription plan. Prices for all tiers of GeForce Now will remain unchanged. The upgrade will begin rolling out in September.
