GeForce Now Enhances VR Gaming with GOG Syncing and 90fps Streaming

NVIDIA’s GeForce Now is enhancing VR gaming experiences with exciting updates, particularly for users of GOG and various VR headsets. Announced during the Game Developer’s Conference (GDC), these improvements focus on delivering better performance and accessibility for gamers.

Key Enhancements in GeForce Now

The most significant update involves virtual reality support. Starting March 19, Ultimate members will have the option to stream games at 90 frames per second (fps) on compatible VR devices, including the Apple Vision Pro and Meta Quest. This upgrade from the previous 60 fps aims to enhance the smoothness, responsiveness, and realism of VR gaming.

In-App Labels for Better Accessibility

Another practical feature is the upcoming in-app labels for better usability within the GeForce Now platform. When users connect their Xbox or Ubisoft accounts, they will see labels on game art. These labels will clearly indicate which games are available through their subscribed services.

Expanded Account Linking and Game Library

NVIDIA is also broadening its account linking options by adding GOG, alongside previously introduced services. This integration aims to provide a seamless experience for players who want to access a wider variety of games.

  • GeForce Now’s Install-to-Play library is growing with select Xbox titles.
  • Games like “Brutal Legend” by Double Fine Productions and “Contrast” by Compulsion Games will be included.
  • Upcoming titles such as “Control Resonant” and “Samson: A Tyndalston Story” will launch directly on the cloud service.

Further Accessibility Across Devices

GeForce Now continues to expand its reach. The cloud gaming service is now available on multiple platforms, including Windows, Mac PCs, NVIDIA’s Shield, Android TV, Fire TV sticks, and smartphones. With the addition of GeForce RTX 5080-powered servers, the gaming experience has become almost indistinguishable from high-end gaming rigs, as noted by industry critics.

As NVIDIA continues to innovate with GeForce Now, it solidifies its position as a leading cloud gaming service, particularly for VR enthusiasts and those who utilize GOG. These enhancements promise a more immersive and enjoyable gaming experience for users.
