GeForce Now's best features are now available for PC and Mac users

GeForce Now subscribers can now stream their games at 4K resolution and 60 frames per second on PC and Mac. Nvidia also announced its newest additions to the streaming catalog, including Trek to Yomi and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.

Nvidia Corporation has enforced another huge upgrade for its GeForce Now streaming service, following on from introducing the RTX 3080 membership, namely the ability for subscribers on this high-end tier to stream games at 4K resolution on PC and Mac.

Previously, the only way to stream GeForce Now games in 4K at 60fps was using a Shield TV. Now, PC and Mac owners can stream in 4K in addition to 1440p/120fps (1600p/120fps on Mac) with ray tracing on. We spent some time with GeForce Now's RTX 3080 update when it was in beta and were impressed with the service's latency and how it turned the Shield TV into a viable console rival.

Few months ago, Nvidia announced single-month memberships for its RTX 3080 tier of GeForce Now's streaming service at $20 a month. This membership gives its subscribers access to a virtual gaming rig powered by an RTX 3080 GPU that you can stream to your smartphone, tablet, PC, and Mac. There's a six-month tier for $100, which essentially gives you a month for free.

Nvidia also mentioned that more mobile devices would receive 120Hz support, such as the Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold3 and Flip3, and OnePlus 9 Pro. This means RTX 3080 members will be able to stream games at 120 frames per second so long as the internet connection holds up.

So, let's start with the games. This week, 3 Electronic Arts Star Wars games are going to join GeForce NOW today:

• Star Wars Battlefront II (Steam)

• Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order (Steam)

• Star Wars: Squadrons (Steam)

On top of these games, we'll also have a grand seven more titles joining the service this week, making 10 games in total. The other seven games joining the service this week are:

Additionally, Backbone: Prologue has recently been added to GeForce NOW's Instant Play Demos.

That's not all with the upgrades the GeForce NOW app sees today, though, as GeForce NOW is leveling up mobile gamers with support for more 120Hz devices capable of streaming at 120 FPS with RTX 3080 memberships. The newly supported devices are the Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold3 and Flip3, and OnePlus 9 Pro.

GeForce NOW is currently available on mobile devices, NVIDIA SHIELD, PC, Mac, and select Smart TVs from Samsung and LG.

GeForce Now (stylized as GeForce NOW) is the brand used by Nvidia for its cloud gaming service. The Nvidia Shield version of GeForce Now, formerly known as Nvidia Grid, launched in beta in 2013, with Nvidia officially unveiling its name on September 30, 2015. The subscription service provided users with unlimited access to a library of games hosted on Nvidia servers for the life of the subscription, being delivered to subscribers through streaming video. Certain titles were also available via a "Buy & Play" model. This version was discontinued in 2019, and transitioned to a new version of the service that enabled Shield users to play their own games.
