GeForce Now Enhances Gaming with Flight Controller Support
GeForce Now, NVIDIA’s cloud gaming platform, is set to enhance the gaming experience for virtual pilots. This week, support for flight controllers has been officially introduced, allowing users to engage in immersive flying experiences. The addition comes after numerous requests from the community for improved flight simulation capabilities.
Flight Controller Support Now Available
The flight control feature enables gamers to fly high without the risk of their hardware faltering. The first flight controller to gain compatibility is the Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS One. Additionally, NVIDIA is currently running a competition, offering this flight controller as a giveaway to five lucky winners, along with one month of GeForce Now Ultimate membership.
New Gaming Options
To optimize the user experience, GeForce Now has included a dedicated section within its app. This row highlights various games that can be enjoyed with flight controls. Among the titles set to support this new feature is Team Jade’s upcoming game, Delta Force.
Streaming Performance Enhancements
In a bid to improve gaming quality, last year NVIDIA upgraded its cloud gaming servers. The incorporation of RTX 5080 GPUs allows GeForce Now Ultimate subscribers to enjoy streaming at 5K resolution and 120 frames per second. This enhancement distinguishes GeForce Now as a leader in cloud gaming.
Community Reception
