Once you’ve connected with your virtual rig, things get a little weird. That said, connecting to GeForce’s servers is also much faster than it used to be, so this antiquated UI is almost unnoticeable. Once you’ve tapped that play button, the screen chugs along for a minute with a display that’s a dead ringer for the AOL 56k modem dial-up connection. Games that are not in your library are simply unavailable to launch, replacing a green “Play” button with a gray “Get” button. Now, instead of performing a game-by-game check to confirm your ownership, GeForce simply connects to your Ubisoft, Steam, and Epic Games accounts. Running games is significantly smoother than it once was.

You can check the long list of supported games here. Neither was Vampire Survivors, Modern Warfare II, or FIFA 23. For instance, I was very interested in putting the latency through its paces by testing out Elden Ring, but it was not available. It’s still disappointing when you’re amped for a certain game, only to find it not available on the service. Of the 76 games currently in my Steam library, only 26 were available to play on GeForce Now. The library is much more impressive than the paltry selection once found on Google Stadia, but the offerings feels a bit more limited than Xbox Cloud Gaming.

There’s a carousel of hot games, a dedicated search bar, and lockers that spotlight developers, genres, and more. It’s also become much easier to find the games you’re looking for. These days, it's even more packed with more than 1500 to choose from. When we first reviewed GeForce Now, the service supported just north of 400 games. (If you purchase a 6-month subscription instead of monthly, you can save some money: $8.33 a month for Priority or $16.67 a month for Ultimate.) GeForce Now – Setup and Interface In late 2022, Nvidia also upgraded its highest-performance tier, “Ultimate.” For $19.99 a month, you get access to a 4080 rig (when available), the fastest servers available, an 8-hour session length, up to 4K resolution, and up to 120fps. This tier, dubbed “Priority” gives you access to premium servers, ray tracing in games that support it, 6-hour play sessions, with up to 1080p resolution and 60fps. It’s effectively free, at least for an hour session at a time, but since launch the subscription prices have gotten a bit more expensive – there’s a $9.99 subscription that’s replaced the previous $4.99 option.

But it also means only select games are supported. And because the games are cloud-based, there’s no updating or maintenance required.
