NVIDIA has announced a significant advancement in cloud gaming, with the launch of its RTX 5080-class streaming scheduled for September 10, 2023. This upgrade, part of the NVIDIA Blackwell RTX rollout, promises to enhance the streaming experience on the GeForce NOW platform, which is particularly beneficial for gamers using devices such as Chromebooks.
The new hardware upgrade is set to deliver unprecedented performance levels, allowing for streaming at resolutions and frame rates previously unseen in cloud gaming. Notably, competitive players can expect high-performance modes that enable streaming at an impressive 360 frames per second or 240 fps with a latency of less than 30 milliseconds. This leap in technology aims to align cloud gaming capabilities with those of high-end local gaming hardware.
In addition to enhanced performance, this upgrade will also expand the gaming library available to users. Over 2,200 new “Install-to-Play” titles will be accessible, significantly increasing the variety of games on the platform. NVIDIA has also hinted at the upcoming launch of the highly anticipated shooter Battlefield 6 in October, further exciting the gaming community.

As the gaming world anticipates the Blackwell rollout, several new titles have already been released on GeForce NOW. Leading the charge is the visually striking AAA game Hell Is Us, which debuted on its launch day. It is joined by the eagerly awaited sequel Hollow Knight: Silksong. The complete list of new games now available includes:
– Hell Is Us

With an additional twelve games scheduled for release throughout September, including notable titles like Borderlands 4 and Dying Light: The Beast, this month promises to be a fruitful one for gamers.
