What’s new in GeForce NOW 2.0.37
New Resolution Upscaling Options

If you have network bandwidth limitations or a higher resolution display, resolution upscaling can improve your experience. This feature allows you to stream your games at a lower resolution, and then upscale them to match your monitor’s or notebook’s native resolution.

Resolution upscaling can be enabled via GeForce NOW settings in our native PC and Mac apps. It can be applied to any game, and it works by applying various upscaling algorithms with a sharpening effect to reduce visible blurriness while streaming.

The Standard mode is enabled by default and has a minimal effect on your system performance. Enhanced mode provides a better experience but may cause some additional latency depending on your system specifications. PC users with select NVIDIA GPUs can enable AI Enhanced mode, which leverages a trained neural network model along with image sharpening for a more natural look.

As you are playing a game, you might notice the sharpening effect is too high or too low. If you are using Custom streaming quality settings, you can bring up the GeForce NOW in-game overlay and adjust the setting in real-time.

For more information, visit the NVIDIA knowledgebase.

Dynamically Adjust Your Streaming Settings

When using Custom streaming quality settings, you can now adjust streaming quality settings when using our native PC and Mac apps to change things like bit rate, VSync, and upscaling mode in real-time via the GeForce NOW in-game overlay. You can bring up the GeForce NOW in-game overlay by pressing Ctrl+G > Settings > Gameplay to access these settings while streaming.

Quality of Service Improvements

The overall streaming experience on play.geforcenow.com has been improved by automatically assigning the ideal streaming resolution for devices that are unable to decode at high streaming bitrates.

Bug Fixes

Per game desktop shortcuts are fixed to launch directly into the game.

Ubisoft Account Linking

Link your NVIDIA and Ubisoft accounts by going to the GeForce NOW in-app settings under CONNECTIONS.

Once you have completed this step, you will be automatically logged into your Ubisoft account when you play these games on any device supported by GeForce NOW.

Please note, this feature does not work for Ubisoft games purchased from Steam. For more information, visit the NVIDIA knowledgebase.

Fit and Finish

For improved security, we have changed the in-app logout process to be completed on a browser when you are using GeForce NOW on a shared device.

Push notifications for play.geforcenow.com have been enhanced and now include a countdown timer to let you know when a session is about to end due to inactivity.

The amount of time needed to update the GeForce NOW app has been significantly reduced.

What’s new in GeForce NOW 2.0.33
Quality of Service Improvements

Our native Windows and macOS app users will see a better streaming experience. Our new release will help to reduce stutter while maintaining low latency for networks with high packet loss.

We also made a couple changes to improve things for members that access GeForce NOW on Chrome browsers:

First, we made some tweaks that will result in less frequent resolution drops, providing a smoother, more visually pleasing streaming experience.

Next, we applied some engineering magic to help members streaming on lossy Wi-Fi network channels. This latest release will allow you to keep on streaming games without significant pauses.

Fit and Finish Updates

We added an exclusive badge to the app for all of our GeForce NOW Founders members - our small way of showing our appreciation. It’s ok to brag a little!

The microphone will now automatically be disabled when our app is in the background. Once you have selected it again, the mic will automatically be enabled. You may be asked again for mic access permissions.

Our app’s desktop icon on macOS has been updated to match the latest macOS design guidelines.

App startup time has been reduced. Again. Didn’t we do this last month?

Some minor improvements were made to the client IME icons and keyboard lists.

Bug fixes

Fixed a problem that prevented you from resuming your game session if a critical app update was performed when you were streaming a game.

What’s new in GeForce NOW 2.0.32
Fit and Finish Updates

Improved app load time by around five seconds, which is about how long it takes the universe to expand 46 miles.

We have decided to enable the mic by default now for members using GeForce NOW on PC and macOS (native or browser apps), which will make it easier to use push- to-talk in game. You can always choose to disable the mic from the in-game overlay: press Ctrl+G for Windows and ChromeOS, or Cmd+G for macOS.

For Client Input Method Editor (IME) users, we added the Client IME selection tothe in-game overlay. So if you are having any problems with your buttons not working as you expect, make sure you select your preferred keyboard in that menu.

We also updated Client IME to allow you to more easily select keyboards that are not listed. This will make it more simple toset up a better default button-mapping scheme. You can find this in the Settings section of the app.

Bugs Fixed

Clicking on “Stay in game” will now properly resume the game after resuming from sleep mode.

You will no longer see an infinite spinner after starting a game, putting your system to sleep, and then trying to resume your game.

In-Steam Statistics

For all the Sal the Statisticians out there, our latest release adds statistics, which are available in-game for our native app using Ctrl+G on Windows or Cmd+G on macOS.

You will see a new option near the bottom of the option window called Statistics, with a button you can use to toggle them on or off. You can also use Ctrl+N on Windows or Cmd+N on macOS to do this.

Once this option is activated, you will see the compact statistics that provide a snapshot of your current stream performance.

You can customize what this window displays. To do so, open the in-game overlay when streaming and go to Settings > Heads up display > Statistics. There you can change the window’s position, or turn on Standard mode to see even more data about your network and current stream.

QoS Improvements

For the Windows and masOS apps, we lowered latency by up to 16ms for games that support Adaptive Vsync. This includes popular games such as Rocket League, Destiny 2, Apex Legends, League of Legends, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six® Siege, Rust, ARK: Survival Evolved, Dota 2, The Witcher® 3: Wild Hunt, The Witcher® 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year.

Fit and Finish Updates

Did you miss the F11 key when playing from a Chrome Browser? Well, we are happy to report it’s available again for games that require it. Note: F11 will not work in game if you have used F11 to enter fullscreen mode.

Make sure you have started the game by clicking “Continue to Game” after launching the game from our web app.

If you are on macOS, F11 currently shows the desktop, so you will need to remap that macOS hotkey to use it in-game.

Don’t blink or you will miss our splash screen, which now displays a GeForce NOW logo and a cool background as the app loads.

We improved our game launch progress indicator, which was not as smooth as it should have been recently. Nothing that a little grease can’t fix!

Our marque and app layout load more smoothly, too.

We added additional keyboard layouts for our Chrome browser app so that it matches the native Windows and macOS apps:

Windows: "bg-BG", "he-IL", "hr-HR", "nl-NL", "sk-SK", "sr-Latn-CS", "ru-RU", "zh-CN", "ja-106", "ko-KR", "zh-TW", "ja-JP"

macOS: "m-fi", "m-ru", "m-ja-106", "ko-KR"

Native Keyboard IME for Japanese, Korean, and Traditional Chinese

As GeForce NOW expands to more countries, we need to make it easier for our international members to enter localized text in login or chat windows in-game.

Therefore, we have added the ability to select your own Input Method Editor (IME) to the native Windows, macOS, and Chrome browser apps, , which may already be installed and configured on your device. An example would be Windows’ Korean IME, which is enabled through Windows settings.

If you are using macOS, check out these Apple support articles for enabling Korean Hangul IME or Japanese IME.

Like many of our features, the IME editors can be accessed from the in-game overlay - Ctrl+G on Windows or Cmd+G on macOS - which will open a dialog box you can use to input text.

Please let us know if you find this new capability useful via GeForce NOW’s in-app feedback options.

Bugs Fixed

Clicking the “Connect” button on the “Reconnect Account” dialog box will now open the Epic Account Login browser window

The “Connect your store account” tile is now in the correct settings location for members that use Arabic.

More Games, Smoother Than Butter!

In v2.0.28 of our native Windows and macOS apps we added a new feature called adaptive VSync, which reduces stutter on poor networks. This is achieved without negatively affecting latency and, in fact, reduces latency on good networks.

Since then we have added more games for you to try: League of Legends, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six® Siege, Rust, ARK: Survival Evolved, Path of Exile, Dota 2, The Witcher® 3: Wild Hunt, The Witcher® 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year

We will continue to add more games each month, so stay tuned!

More Quality of Service Improvements

We continue to make improvements for users on congested networks that experience bursty packet loss.

Our latest release will help further reduce stutter, and users on these networks will see less frozen or corrupted frames.

Apple M1 Support For Google Chrome

Apple’s recent Spring Forward event introduced even more Apple M1-based products, like the brand-new iMac 24-inch.

If you’ve got one of these on pre-order, or already have another Apple M1-based product, good news: our latest browser app now supports these products. Just point your Google Chrome browser to https://play.geforcenow.com and start gaming.

Fit and Finish

Join Fortnite Matches Faster with Single Sign-On

We have added a new single-sign on feature for Fortnite. Now you can play the game without having to log in to your Epic Games Account every time you launch a new Fortnite session on GeForce NOW.

PC, macOS, and Chromebook users can check the My Library row for a notification to Connect your store accounts to GeForce NOW.

Clicking this notification will take you to GeForce NOW settings, where you can turn on single sign-on for Fortnite under Connections.

Once you have completed this step, you will no longer need to log in to your Epic Account to play Fortnite on any other GeForce NOW platform.

Fortnite Pre-loading

We are also testing a new feature called pre-loading, which starts loading parts of Fortnite before you arrive so that your game launch times will be faster.

Members must enable Fortnite single sign-on to get the startup time benefit.

We expect a reduction of at least a minute, starting from clicking play in GeForce NOW to when you see the Fortnite in-game lobby.

Over the next few weeks, we are upgrading our servers with a goal of supporting Fortnite pre-loading for all launches; however, as we are still tuning this feature, there will be limited availability until the full rollout.

Performance and Founders Members will get first access to the pre-loaded machines.

Improved Search Results

Are you looking for a way to find all sci-fi games, or games with kittens, on GeForce NOW? With our latest app, we now offer members a full-page search option to find the games you want to play.

Our new search capability will give you a page full of games, instead of just a list.

You can click on any game to access the game details page, which lets you launch the game, learn more about it, or add the game to your library.

The search results have also been renamed from Recent Searches to Recent Games.

Browser App In-Game Overlay

If you use Chrome browser to play games from https://play.geforcenow.com, we have made our in-game overlay accessible.

You can bring it up on Windows or Chromebook using Ctrl + G, and on macOS Cmd + G.

Auto-update will no longer cause the “Relaunch Now” button to malfunction.

The “Agree & Continue” button is now clickable on Chromebooks.

New members will now have the “See More” option after they add more than 15 games to their library.

Steaming Quality of Service Enhancements

Our latest release adds some quality of service improvements for the PC and macOS apps for users with 60Hz and 59.94Hz monitors, or notebooks.

A new default Vsync streaming setting, called Adaptive VSync, helps reduce stutter on poor networks - without affecting latency. It also helps reduce latency on good networks. Adaptive VSync works with a select set of games, including: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Apex Legends™, Rocket League® and Destiny 2. We will look to add more games that can benefit from this feature.

In addition, macOS users will see latency reduced by up to 16ms in all games.

Browse your Own Gallery and Create Montages

Now that we have released Highlights and Photo Mode, many of our members have created some amazing content from their games, including achievement videos and beautiful, professional-grade images.

Our latest PC and macOS apps now have a Gallery, which can be accessed from the app menu (keep reading below). Gallery is a convenient, natural, and powerful way to browse and manage all of your captured content without needing to launch a game.

By selecting more than one video in the Gallery you can access Montage, which enables you to effortlessly create compelling video summaries of your gameplay, while adding your own flair. It’s ok, you don’t need to add 37 pieces of flair - add as little, or as much, as you want.

And remember, always fade out in a montage.

New App Menu

Who likes hamburgers? My friend Bob makes a great burger.

We’ve introduced our own “hamburger,” which is an in-app menu that lets you access the games list, settings, and Gallery.

Easily Find Games on Digital Stores

Games are now available across multiple games stores, so we are working hard to make it easier for you to quickly find the games you own on each store.

Over the next few weeks, PC, macOS, and Chromebook users will see a new feature where we now combine all game stores for a game into a single game tile.

For instance, Ubisoft’s Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is available to play on Ubisoft Connect, Epic Games, and Steam. Instead of seeing three game tiles for each store, you will now see a single game tile, and you just switch between the stores by selecting the digital store you use on that game tile.

Once you have selected your digital store, the PLAY button turn green and let you play the game.

Fit and Finish Updates

Reduced startup time by about 3 seconds. Now if you have paid attention, we have been trying really hard since we launched our paid service in February to always keep shaving seconds off game startup time. Since that first app release, we have reduced average startup time by about 14 seconds.

Added an error message that will appear if you try to launch a game you do not own on Epic Games Store.

Added a simple app update method for the Chromebook app. If you are using our web app to play GeForce NOW and a new app is available, you can hit the new Refresh Now button to get the latest version.

For more information, please read our knowledge base article.

Fit and Finish

We’ve sped up the launch time of all versions of the GeForce NOW app start time. Users with low-performance systems should see the most improvement.

For games that support Highlights, we added a new option at game launch to give you complete control over which moments you want Highlights to automatically save for you. If you want to change this setting, you can always launch the in-game overlay to adjust what is captured, at any time, by pressing CTRL-G on Windows or Cmd-G on macOS.

We’ve also tweaked Highlights support on PC and macOS to prevent false detections when running games such as League of Legends, Rocket League, Paladins, and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on poor networks or at lower bitrates.

Your feedback is valuable to us, so we wanted to make sure you can provide it while gaming. Now you can send us your thoughts while streaming a game by launching the in-game overlay. Launch the in-game overlay by pressing CTR+G on our Windows app, or Cmd+G on our macOS app. Now, if we could only hire more interns to read all the feedback…

We did everything in this update while also making the GeForce NOW app smaller, which means you can download it even faster.

Steam Ownership Sync

One of the most requested features we get is “I’d like an easier way to see which games I own on Steam are supported on GeForce NOW.”

Your wish is our command! Our new app on PC and Mac adds a feature that allows you to sync games you own from your Steam library into My Library on GeForce NOW.

Ready to get started? Go to the GeForce NOW app > Settings > Game Sync and click the chain icon to setup sync. To use this feature, you will need to set your Steam account to public so that your owned games will sync with GeForce NOW. Follow the rest of the steps, and your games will magically appear in your My Library.

This feature isn’t an automatic sync, so each time you purchase a new game you will need to press the Sync button in the NVIDIA app to add it to My Library.

For more information on using this feature, please check out our knowledge base article.

New NVIDIA Account Login Experience

GeForce NOW is growing with more service providers around the world providing service. Therefore, we need to upgrade our Login service to support multiple provider logins.

During the transition, all users will be logged out one time. Don’t panic: This is expected, and all you need to do is log in again.

When you start the new login process, you will go to a website to log in. Once you are done, just come back to the app and you will be logged in.

Most NVIDIA GeForce NOW members that go to the website to log in just need to click the NVIDIA button (sole provider in your region). If you are using GeForce NOW through one of our Alliance Partners, select your provider on the website.

Fit and Finish

Every second counts. We shaved off about two seconds from the time it takes from pressing play in our app to when streaming starts.

Our designers made some more small changes to the game details, which reduce the amount of scrolling needed to read about each game.

Bug Fixes

Fixed a problem where the streaming window hung while streaming a game.

Fixed a problem where the FreeStyle filter “+” button wasn’t working with all languages set in the operating system

Personalize Your Gameplay with FreeStyle Game Filters

NVIDIA Freestyle game filters allow you to apply post-processing filters on your games while you play.

You can instantly change the look and mood of your game with tweaks to color or saturation, or apply dramatic post-process filters like HDR.

Available for PC and macOS apps only, use the in-game overlay (CTRL-G on Windows or Cmd-G on macOS) to apply filters, adjust keyboard shortcuts, view your Gallery, and a whole lot more.

Need help with FreeStyle? Start here.

App Polish

Game launch time has been reduced by up to three seconds. You’ll really feel this if your device has slower hard drives.

UI fit-and-finish improvements, including tweaks to game details and game artwork spacing. Kinda like spring cleaning for UX designers.

Search results have been improved for games that are on multiple game stores.

The ability to resume playing a game across different devices has been improved.

The app now consumes less memory. Save that RAM for your web browser.

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where some users were getting logged out from the app on game launch.

Fixed an error report issue the network test gave some members when it detected high latency and high packet loss.

Fixed a problem where the +LIBRARY button disappears from the marquee.

Capture Even More Highlights

NVIDIA Highlights is a feature developed by NVIDIA that many industry leading developers have implemented in their games to allow gamers to easily capture and share their best moments.

Current games that support NVIDIA Highlights include Fortnite and Kingdom Come: Deliverance. For a full list of games, please read this Highlights knowledge base article.

This new app release adds some new technology that uses smart pattern and image recognition in our cloud servers to detect key moments in games. When one of those moments is detected, like a game-winning kill, we capture and save the highlight automatically.

Over the next few weeks, PC users will see support for our first two games - Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and League of Legends. Let no victory go unrecorded! We’ll add support for the feature to more games over time. Stay tuned to see which games get support next and when we add macOS support!

Use the in-game overlay (CTRL-G on Windows or Cmd-G on Mac) to turn on Highlights, view your Gallery, change your keyboard shortcuts, and more.

New Sorting and Filtering Controls

Sort your GeForce NOW library by game store, genre, or game name, alphabetically.

These new options are available in the top right corner of the app when you click “SEE MORE” in the My Library and our sections - like Free to Play.

Keyboard Layout Control

Option to override automatic keyboard detection in the GeForce NOW app. The override takes effect once you launch your next game session.

Use this override if your physical keyboard layout doesn’t match the layout in your streaming session, keeping you from typing the correct characters. Read more about it in our knowledge base.

TL;DR: Now you can get back to trash talking in your native language.

App Polish

Improved the login experience for members that use Google accounts.

Fixed an error message that occurs if you try to launch a second stream using the same account. Don’t cross the streams. It would be bad.

More streaming quality of service improvements.

We shaved another 500ms off game startup time.

Bug Fixes

Removed infinite spinners some users were seeing on the play button for games in-app.

The marquee (top section) of our app could show a spinner if you have no internet connection

Fixed inconsistent localizations for some text strings

Streaming Quality Improvements

Streaming quality has been improved on networks with high packet loss.

Prevented streaming quality bars from appearing when our app falsely detects poor networks.

Improved game start-up-time from when you click a game in our app to when the stream starts by about 400ms. It ain’t much, but it’s honest work.

Patching and Maintenance Mode

All our apps - PC, macOS, SHIELD and Android - will now display patching and maintenance status for games. These messages appear on mouse hover (on PC and macOS), when you search for games from our search box and in game details.

Patching status means that game is currently being updated. They’re usually available again in a few hours, though occasionally it can take longer than that.

Maintenance means that the game has to be taken offline and may not be available to play for several days or, in rare cases, weeks.

App Polish and Bug Fixes

Fixed an app bug that allowed the option to +LIBRARY to be visible for games in the search bar when they were already in your library.

Fixed a problem that prevented some Japanese characters from working when you use them in the search bar.

Improved log in performance for some members who were experiencing long connection times.

An error message has been added for cases where members have upgraded to Founders, but the app still thinks they have Free memberships.

Performance has been improved when activating the in-game overlay (CTRL+G or CMD+G). You can use the overlay to access our NVIDIA Highlights feature and other settings while streaming.

Fixed fuzzy text UI issues on high DPI displays, such as Retina notebooks and iMacs. This doesn’t change the text you see while streaming, but it will help improve in-app dialog boxes and messages.

Improved search results to no longer show cached games, which may no longer be available to play.

If you want to optimize further, check out these tips, and make sure you meet our streaming requirements.

Ready to finally upgrade that router? We have a list of recommended options, optimized for GeForce NOW.

User Interface Updates for Game Store Support

We’ve added a new UI callout to better identify which game store a game is available on. You’ll see this now on search, our marquee (top banner area) and in the game details.

Search for your game and you’ll see big, beautiful text for the supported game store.

Want to try this out? Type in “Wolcen” into the search bar.

Please note we do not list all platforms yet, but we are working on it.

Game Content Ratings

Content ratings have been added to the game details for all games, including ESRB, PEGI, USK, GRAC and CERO systems.

If a game does not have an official rating from those content rating systems, we instead provide our recommended age rating.

Other Changes

Improved Russian translations in the Streaming Quality section of our app. Большое спасибо Данил и Денис!

Several minor fixes introduced for people upgrading to Founders membership when the app doesn’t think purchase was completed.

Miscellaneous improvements for overall app quality, stability and reliability. You go for the win, we’ll handle the details.

GeForce NOW: GeForce Gaming, Available to All

We are excited to announce that our beta test period has ended, and GeForce NOW is open to everyone. Ready to get started? Read on.

GeForce NOW members in regions serviced by alliance partners (GFN.ru, LGU+, Softbank) will continue to experience the service as offered by those alliance partners. Look for updates from them for any service changes in their regions.

Search in More Languages

Our Search bar’s been studying - you can now search to find a specific game in our PC and macOS apps if it has a name in your language.

Want to find Fortnite? Sure, you can search for the game in English, but in South Korea the game is known as 포트나이트. Using either name will get you into the action.

Even if your chosen game doesn’t have a non-English name, you can now search using keywords or genres in your local language. Give it a try!

More Game Info

We’ve added more info to game details

Want to know if your chosen game has controller support, or includes multiplayer modes? You can find that info under the game’s details.

Other Changes

Fit and finish improvements, designed to make browsing the app easier and faster and improve overall stability. These are little details that maybe you won’t notice, but keep our UI designers up at night. Get some sleep, guys!

For instance, switching between rows when expanding the game details is much more comfortable, and it’s now much harder to accidentally change the game in the evidence panel as you move your mouse across the screen.

Added a workaround for macOS users with Japanese 106 key keyboard layouts that are unable to type an underscore (“_”) when streaming. Please use “SHIFT + _” when streaming.

Other miscellaneous fixes. You may not see them, but they’ll improve overall app quality, stability, and reliability.

Local Mouse Cursor Added

We now draw the mouse cursor locally in your app with games that use a hardware cursor, such as League of Legends and Path of Exile.

This improves latency, speeds up cursor response times, and improves game menu navigation, resulting in a better overall mouse feel.

Click the exclamation icon and let us know how the new cursor works for you. Your feedback helps us dial it in.

Gotta Go Fast

Game sessions will now launch even faster - by as much as 1.3 seconds. Every second you’re not in the game is a moment wasted, right?

New and Improved Network Tester

The time it takes to run a network test has been reduced from around 15 seconds to a mere five seconds. We are rolling this update out to each of our GeForce NOW data centers over the coming weeks, so it may take some time to reach everyone.

Need even more help with your connection? Click here.

New Highlights In-Game Overlay Shortcuts

Our new app updates some keyboard shortcuts used to activate the In-Game Overlay and record your content using NVIDIA Highlights.

The new shortcuts are Ctrl+G on PC or Cmd+G on Mac.

Get In The Game Faster

Game sessions should launch 2-3 seconds faster, thanks to some backend magic in this update. That’s 10% faster on average.

Think of what you can do with this extra free time. You can learn a new language, or eat a pre-game snack. We vote snacks.

Game Patching Notifications

Our new app will now show if a game is patching before you launch it. Know before you go.

More info on our game patching process is a big priority for us, and we’re thrilled to make this easier for you.

Additional Language Support

The GeForce NOW app adds support for the following languages: UK English, Latin America Spanish, Slovak, Slovenian, Croatian.

Improved App Visuals

Various tweaks to the way the app looks, including small changes to top-banner game images. Kind of like when Mom licks a napkin to clean your little brother’s face, but it’s a software engineer and somehow less awkward.

Other Things

Parles-tu Français ? Because if you do and you use a French keyboard you might have found our problem with using the “@” symbol to login to digital stores or game launchers. We have written workaround steps here and are working on a real fix in a future app update.

You can access this setting from the GeForce NOW app > Settings > Game Language.

Expanded support for 10-bit Color Precision

GeForce NOW Ultimate members will receive an image quality enhancement when streaming from Edge and Chrome browsers on Windows, Chrome browser on Chromebook, Samsung TV, and LG TV. The feature is already supported on the GeForce NOW native Windows, macOS, or NVIDIA SHIELD TV app.

This update enhances visual quality even if you do not have an HDR display or if a game does not support HDR.

You can find this setting in the GeForce NOW app > Settings > Streaming Quality > Color precision. The 10-bit setting is recommended, but an 8-bit setting is available if your device is not supported.

4K streaming is also made possible by NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), which is groundbreaking AI rendering technology that increases graphics performance using dedicated Tensor Core AI processors on GeForce RTX GPUs. DLSS taps into the power of a deep-learning neural network to boost frame rates and generate beautiful, sharp images for your games.

New Resolution Upscaling Options

If you have network bandwidth limitations or a higher resolution display, resolution upscaling can improve your experience. This feature allows you to stream your games at a lower resolution, and then upscale them to match your monitor’s or notebook’s native resolution.

Resolution upscaling can be enabled via GeForce NOW settings in our native PC and Mac apps. It can be applied to any game, and it works by applying various upscaling algorithms with a sharpening effect to reduce visible blurriness while streaming.

The Standard mode is enabled by default and has a minimal effect on your system performance. Enhanced mode provides a better experience but may cause some additional latency depending on your system specifications. PC users with select NVIDIA GPUs can enable AI Enhanced mode, which leverages a trained neural network model along with image sharpening for a more natural look.

As you are playing a game, you might notice the sharpening effect is too high or too low. If you are using Custom streaming quality settings, you can bring up the GeForce NOW in-game overlay and adjust the setting in real-time.

For more information, visit the NVIDIA knowledgebase.

Dynamically Adjust Your Streaming Settings

When using Custom streaming quality settings, you can now adjust streaming quality settings when using our native PC and Mac apps to change things like bit rate, VSync, and upscaling mode in real-time via the GeForce NOW in-game overlay. You can bring up the GeForce NOW in-game overlay by pressing Ctrl+G > Settings > Gameplay to access these settings while streaming.

Quality of Service Improvements

The overall streaming experience on play.geforcenow.com has been improved by automatically assigning the ideal streaming resolution for devices that are unable to decode at high streaming bitrates.

Quality of Service Improvements

Our native Windows and macOS app users will see a better streaming experience. Our new release will help to reduce stutter while maintaining low latency for networks with high packet loss.

We also made a couple changes to improve things for members that access GeForce NOW on Chrome browsers:

First, we made some tweaks that will result in less frequent resolution drops, providing a smoother, more visually pleasing streaming experience.

Next, we applied some engineering magic to help members streaming on lossy Wi-Fi network channels. This latest release will allow you to keep on streaming games without significant pauses.

Fit and Finish Updates

We added an exclusive badge to the app for all of our GeForce NOW Founders members - our small way of showing our appreciation. It’s ok to brag a little!

Some minor improvements were made to the client IME icons and keyboard lists.

Fit and Finish Updates

Improved app load time by around five seconds, which is about how long it takes the universe to expand 46 miles.

We have decided to enable the mic by default now for members using GeForce NOW on PC and macOS (native or browser apps), which will make it easier to use push- to-talk in game. You can always choose to disable the mic from the in-game overlay: press Ctrl+G for Windows and ChromeOS, or Cmd+G for macOS.

For Client Input Method Editor (IME) users, we added the Client IME selection tothe in-game overlay. So if you are having any problems with your buttons not working as you expect, make sure you select your preferred keyboard in that menu.

We also updated Client IME to allow you to more easily select keyboards that are not listed. This will make it more simple toset up a better default button-mapping scheme. You can find this in the Settings section of the app.

Bugs Fixed

Clicking on “Stay in game” will now properly resume the game after resuming from sleep mode.

In-Steam Statistics

For all the Sal the Statisticians out there, our latest release adds statistics, which are available in-game for our native app using Ctrl+G on Windows or Cmd+G on macOS.

You will see a new option near the bottom of the option window called Statistics, with a button you can use to toggle them on or off. You can also use Ctrl+N on Windows or Cmd+N on macOS to do this.

Once this option is activated, you will see the compact statistics that provide a snapshot of your current stream performance.

You can customize what this window displays. To do so, open the in-game overlay when streaming and go to Settings > Heads up display > Statistics. There you can change the window’s position, or turn on Standard mode to see even more data about your network and current stream.

QoS Improvements

For the Windows and masOS apps, we lowered latency by up to 16ms for games that support Adaptive Vsync. This includes popular games such as Rocket League, Destiny 2, Apex Legends, League of Legends, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six® Siege, Rust, ARK: Survival Evolved, Dota 2, The Witcher® 3: Wild Hunt, The Witcher® 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year.

Fit and Finish Updates

Did you miss the F11 key when playing from a Chrome Browser? Well, we are happy to report it’s available again for games that require it. Note: F11 will not work in game if you have used F11 to enter fullscreen mode.

Make sure you have started the game by clicking “Continue to Game” after launching the game from our web app.

If you are on macOS, F11 currently shows the desktop, so you will need to remap that macOS hotkey to use it in-game.

Don’t blink or you will miss our splash screen, which now displays a GeForce NOW logo and a cool background as the app loads.

We improved our game launch progress indicator, which was not as smooth as it should have been recently. Nothing that a little grease can’t fix!

Our marque and app layout load more smoothly, too.

We added additional keyboard layouts for our Chrome browser app so that it matches the native Windows and macOS apps:

Windows: "bg-BG", "he-IL", "hr-HR", "nl-NL", "sk-SK", "sr-Latn-CS", "ru-RU", "zh-CN", "ja-106", "ko-KR", "zh-TW", "ja-JP"

macOS: "m-fi", "m-ru", "m-ja-106", "ko-KR"

Native Keyboard IME for Japanese, Korean, and Traditional Chinese

As GeForce NOW expands to more countries, we need to make it easier for our international members to enter localized text in login or chat windows in-game.

Therefore, we have added the ability to select your own Input Method Editor (IME) to the native Windows, macOS, and Chrome browser apps, , which may already be installed and configured on your device. An example would be Windows’ Korean IME, which is enabled through Windows settings.

If you are using macOS, check out these Apple support articles for enabling Korean Hangul IME or Japanese IME.

Like many of our features, the IME editors can be accessed from the in-game overlay - Ctrl+G on Windows or Cmd+G on macOS - which will open a dialog box you can use to input text.

Please let us know if you find this new capability useful via GeForce NOW’s in-app feedback options.

Bugs Fixed

More Games, Smoother Than Butter!

In v2.0.28 of our native Windows and macOS apps we added a new feature called adaptive VSync, which reduces stutter on poor networks. This is achieved without negatively affecting latency and, in fact, reduces latency on good networks.

Since then we have added more games for you to try: League of Legends, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six® Siege, Rust, ARK: Survival Evolved, Path of Exile, Dota 2, The Witcher® 3: Wild Hunt, The Witcher® 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year

We will continue to add more games each month, so stay tuned!

More Quality of Service Improvements

We continue to make improvements for users on congested networks that experience bursty packet loss.

Our latest release will help further reduce stutter, and users on these networks will see less frozen or corrupted frames.

Apple M1 Support For Google Chrome

Apple’s recent Spring Forward event introduced even more Apple M1-based products, like the brand-new iMac 24-inch.

If you’ve got one of these on pre-order, or already have another Apple M1-based product, good news: our latest browser app now supports these products. Just point your Google Chrome browser to https://play.geforcenow.com and start gaming.

Join Fortnite Matches Faster with Single Sign-On

We have added a new single-sign on feature for Fortnite. Now you can play the game without having to log in to your Epic Games Account every time you launch a new Fortnite session on GeForce NOW.

PC, macOS, and Chromebook users can check the My Library row for a notification to Connect your store accounts to GeForce NOW.

Clicking this notification will take you to GeForce NOW settings, where you can turn on single sign-on for Fortnite under Connections.

Once you have completed this step, you will no longer need to log in to your Epic Account to play Fortnite on any other GeForce NOW platform.

Fortnite Pre-loading

We are also testing a new feature called pre-loading, which starts loading parts of Fortnite before you arrive so that your game launch times will be faster.

Members must enable Fortnite single sign-on to get the startup time benefit.

We expect a reduction of at least a minute, starting from clicking play in GeForce NOW to when you see the Fortnite in-game lobby.

Over the next few weeks, we are upgrading our servers with a goal of supporting Fortnite pre-loading for all launches; however, as we are still tuning this feature, there will be limited availability until the full rollout.

Performance and Founders Members will get first access to the pre-loaded machines.

Improved Search Results

Are you looking for a way to find all sci-fi games, or games with kittens, on GeForce NOW? With our latest app, we now offer members a full-page search option to find the games you want to play.

Our new search capability will give you a page full of games, instead of just a list.

You can click on any game to access the game details page, which lets you launch the game, learn more about it, or add the game to your library.

What’s new in GeForce NOW 2.0.28
Steaming Quality of Service Enhancements

Our latest release adds some quality of service improvements for the PC and macOS apps for users with 60Hz and 59.94Hz monitors, or notebooks.

A new default Vsync streaming setting, called Adaptive VSync, helps reduce stutter on poor networks - without affecting latency. It also helps reduce latency on good networks. Adaptive VSync works with a select set of games, including: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Apex Legends™, Rocket League® and Destiny 2. We will look to add more games that can benefit from this feature.

In addition, macOS users will see latency reduced by up to 16ms in all games.

Improved Browser Support

ChromeOS users will now have an option on the top banner to INSTALL a shortcut on their desktops, making it easier to launch GeForce NOW.

Bug Fixes

Adding or removing a game in My Library, and then closing and relaunching a game, will no longer result in a delay to see a refreshed list of added or removed games.

Fixed a problem that prevented GeForce NOW from auto updating on macOS Big Sur after pressing RELAUNCH NOW

FreeStyle filters are no longer grayed out when the internet is disconnected and reconnected.

Windows users will now see the notification to DOWNLOAD the native GeForce NOW app when using Google Chrome.

Users will no longer see two digital stores for games that only support one when using GeForce NOW on Google Chrome.

More Web Browsers and Platforms Supported

Last year we launched a GeForce NOW beta for the Safari browser on iOS/iPadOS devices, which made it easy for millions to enjoy PC gaming.

In 2.0.27 we are adding beta support for the Google Chrome browser, which will enable millions more prospective new PC gamers to easily play the latest games on Windows and macOS. (ChromeOS is already supported.) Other platforms may work, but are unsupported.

Just point your Chrome browser to https://play.geforcenow.com to get started!

We have also added an easy way for you to create bookmarks and shortcuts to help you launch your favorite games faster. Simply click on a game to open the game details options, and select +SHORTCUT to open a dialog to create a game shortcut on your desktop.

Invite a Friend to GeForce NOW

With our expanded browser support, it’s even easier to try GeForce NOW.

On Chrome Browsers, we added a way for you to share a URL for any game on GeForce NOW with your friends.

Click on any game to open the game details options.

Then, copy the URL shown in your web browser and share it via social media or text message, or email it to your friends to invite them to play.

On iOS and iPadOS you can also share a game with the built-in Share option to any app that is integrated into iOS/iPadOS Share, including iMessage, Whatsapp, and more.

This release adds support for the latest PS5^™ DualSense^™ for the macOS and Windows native apps and Chrome browsers. You can connect it using USB-C or Bluetooth.

In addition, we have added support for Xbox Series X^™ controllers on our native macOS and Windows apps. You can connect it using USB-C or Bluetooth. Windows 10 users will need to use version 1909 or newer and macOS users will need to use macOS 11.1 or newer.

Bug Fixes

You will no longer see an infinite spinner in the feedback dialog box if you lose your network connection.

NVIDIA Welcomes the Balkan Region to GeForce NOW!

We’ve added a new data center in Sofia, Bulgaria, which provides lower latency and better quality to members throughout the region.

Fit and Finish Updates

Added support for 4:3 aspect ratio resolutions. Time to dust off your old LCD screen and start retro gaming!

All users can now see their membership level on the main app home screen.

We now recognize and enable Auto Highlights for supported games when you launch them from our app or if you launch them in Steam first.

Members that use Chromebooks will now get an option to “Add GeForce NOW on their Home Screen,” which lets you launch the app directly from your desktop. This option is located on the far right of the Chrome Browser bar.

Bug Fixes

Browse your Own Gallery and Create Montages

Now that we have released Highlights and Photo Mode, many of our members have created some amazing content from their games, including achievement videos and beautiful, professional-grade images.

Our latest PC and macOS apps now have a Gallery, which can be accessed from the app menu (keep reading below). Gallery is a convenient, natural, and powerful way to browse and manage all of your captured content without needing to launch a game.

By selecting more than one video in the Gallery you can access Montage, which enables you to effortlessly create compelling video summaries of your gameplay, while adding your own flair. It’s ok, you don’t need to add 37 pieces of flair - add as little, or as much, as you want.

And remember, always fade out in a montage.

New App Menu

Who likes hamburgers? My friend Bob makes a great burger.

We’ve introduced our own “hamburger,” which is an in-app menu that lets you access the games list, settings, and Gallery.

This menu, or “hamburger helper”, will help you find things faster and allow us to easily add more features to GeForce NOW in the future.

Easily Find Games on Digital Stores

Games are now available across multiple games stores, so we are working hard to make it easier for you to quickly find the games you own on each store.

Over the next few weeks, PC, macOS, and Chromebook users will see a new feature where we now combine all game stores for a game into a single game tile.

For instance, Ubisoft’s Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is available to play on Ubisoft Connect, Epic Games, and Steam. Instead of seeing three game tiles for each store, you will now see a single game tile, and you just switch between the stores by selecting the digital store you use on that game tile.

Once you have selected your digital store, the PLAY button turn green and let you play the game.

Fit and Finish Updates

Reduced startup time by about 3 seconds. Now if you have paid attention, we have been trying really hard since we launched our paid service in February to always keep shaving seconds off game startup time. Since that first app release, we have reduced average startup time by about 14 seconds.

Added an error message that will appear if you try to launch a game you do not own on Epic Games Store.

Added a simple app update method for the Chromebook app. If you are using our web app to play GeForce NOW and a new app is available, you can hit the new Refresh Now button to get the latest version.

We updated the in-game overlay to only show the Photo Mode and FreeStyle options when we detect a supported game.

Bug Fixes

Fixed a problem that caused you to see an infinite spinner in the feedback dialog box if you lose your network connection.

Game Launch Time Improvements

We reduced launch time for games by about five seconds. We apologize to all of you who were using that time learning to solve your Rubix cube in less than five seconds.

Fit and Finish Improvements

Did you get an NVIDIA promo code for our Hyper Scape 6 month bundle or with your purchase of a GeForce RTX 30-series? You can now quickly activate the code from the GeForce NOW app. Go to the settings page and click on Activate to redeem that promo code of yours and start gaming instantly!

The PC and macOS apps should now launch quicker.

Bug Fixes

Fixed a problem that prevented the in-game pop-up notification from appearing after launching a game the second time.

Prevented the Game Sync tile from appearing in the My Library section with no internet connection.

Fixed a problem that caused an infinite spinner to appear in-app when the internet connection is dropped.

Fixed a problem on macOS that prevented you from switching back to the game window using CMD+TAB.

Fixed a problem that caused multiple pop-up windows to appear when you pressed the SEE MORE button in a section of the app without logging in first.

Chromebooks get Steam Game Sync

Steam Game Sync has been one of our most popular new features for our PC and macOS apps. With today’s update, Chromebook owners can now take advantage of Steam Game Sync, too.

Game Sync allows you to sync games you own from your Steam library with My Library on GeForce NOW.

If you haven’t tried it, you should: Game Sync makes it even easier to find the games in your Steam library that are available on GeForce NOW.

For more information on using this feature, please check out our knowledge base article.

Take Your Best Shot with Photo Mode

Think you have a photographer’s eye? Launch your favorite GeForce NOW game and start creating eye-popping game images with Photo Mode.

Photo Mode is a powerful photo mode tool that lets you take professional-grade photographs in supported games, such as League of Legends, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege, and The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt. Now, you can capture and share your most brilliant gaming experiences with photographs.

Photo Mode support is now available for our PC and macOS apps. Use the in-game overlay (CTRL+G on Windows or Cmd+G on macOS) to access Photo Mode and use the free camera, post processing filters, and other tools, to amaze your friends.

Share your best work with us on Twitter using #GFNShare for a chance to have your photos shared with the GeForce NOW audience!

For more information, please read our knowledge base article.

Fit and Finish

We’ve sped up the launch time of all versions of the GeForce NOW app start time. Users with low-performance systems should see the most improvement.

For games that support Highlights, we added a new option at game launch to give you complete control over which moments you want Highlights to automatically save for you. If you want to change this setting, you can always launch the in-game overlay to adjust what is captured, at any time, by pressing CTRL-G on Windows or Cmd-G on macOS.

We’ve also tweaked Highlights support on PC and macOS to prevent false detections when running games such as League of Legends, Rocket League, Paladins, and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on poor networks or at lower bitrates.

Your feedback is valuable to us, so we wanted to make sure you can provide it while gaming. Now you can send us your thoughts while streaming a game by launching the in-game overlay. Launch the in-game overlay by pressing CTR+G on our Windows app, or Cmd+G on our macOS app. Now, if we could only hire more interns to read all the feedback…

We did everything in this update while also making the GeForce NOW app smaller, which means you can download it even faster.

Bug Fixes

Resolved an issue that caused some games to reappear in My Library after they were removed.

Fixed a problem on macOS that caused game streams to hang if you tried to change your OS keyboard layout.

Steam Ownership Sync

One of the most requested features we get is “I’d like an easier way to see which games I own on Steam are supported on GeForce NOW.”

Your wish is our command! Our new app on PC and Mac adds a feature that allows you to sync games you own from your Steam library into My Library on GeForce NOW.

Ready to get started? Go to the GeForce NOW app > Settings > Game Sync and click the chain icon to setup sync. To use this feature, you will need to set your Steam account to public so that your owned games will sync with GeForce NOW. Follow the rest of the steps, and your games will magically appear in your My Library.

This feature isn’t an automatic sync, so each time you purchase a new game you will need to press the Sync button in the NVIDIA app to add it to My Library.

For more information on using this feature, please check out our knowledge base article.

New NVIDIA Account Login Experience

GeForce NOW is growing with more service providers around the world providing service. Therefore, we need to upgrade our Login service to support multiple provider logins.

During the transition, all users will be logged out one time. Don’t panic: This is expected, and all you need to do is log in again.

When you start the new login process, you will go to a website to log in. Once you are done, just come back to the app and you will be logged in.

Most NVIDIA GeForce NOW members that go to the website to log in just need to click the NVIDIA button (sole provider in your region). If you are using GeForce NOW through one of our Alliance Partners, select your provider on the website.

Fit and Finish

Every second counts. We shaved off about two seconds from the time it takes from pressing play in our app to when streaming starts.

Our designers made some more small changes to the game details, which reduce the amount of scrolling needed to read about each game.

Bug Fixes

Fixed a problem where the streaming window hung while streaming a game.

Fixed a problem where the FreeStyle filter “+” button wasn’t working with all languages set in the operating system

Personalize Your Gameplay with FreeStyle Game Filters

NVIDIA Freestyle game filters allow you to apply post-processing filters on your games while you play.

You can instantly change the look and mood of your game with tweaks to color or saturation, or apply dramatic post-process filters like HDR.

Available for PC and macOS apps only, use the in-game overlay (CTRL-G on Windows or Cmd-G on macOS) to apply filters, adjust keyboard shortcuts, view your Gallery, and a whole lot more.

Need help with FreeStyle? Start here.

App Polish

Game launch time has been reduced by up to three seconds. You’ll really feel this if your device has slower hard drives.

UI fit-and-finish improvements, including tweaks to game details and game artwork spacing. Kinda like spring cleaning for UX designers.

Search results have been improved for games that are on multiple game stores.

The ability to resume playing a game across different devices has been improved.

The app now consumes less memory. Save that RAM for your web browser.

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where some users were getting logged out from the app on game launch.

Fixed an error report issue the network test gave some members when it detected high latency and high packet loss.

Fixed a problem where the +LIBRARY button disappears from the marquee.

Capture Even More Highlights

NVIDIA Highlights is a feature developed by NVIDIA that many industry leading developers have implemented in their games to allow gamers to easily capture and share their best moments.

Current games that support NVIDIA Highlights include Fortnite and Kingdom Come: Deliverance. For a full list of games, please read this Highlights knowledge base article.

This new app release adds some new technology that uses smart pattern and image recognition in our cloud servers to detect key moments in games. When one of those moments is detected, like a game-winning kill, we capture and save the highlight automatically.

Over the next few weeks, PC users will see support for our first two games - Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and League of Legends. Let no victory go unrecorded! We’ll add support for the feature to more games over time. Stay tuned to see which games get support next and when we add macOS support!

Use the in-game overlay (CTRL-G on Windows or Cmd-G on Mac) to turn on Highlights, view your Gallery, change your keyboard shortcuts, and more.

New Sorting and Filtering Controls

Sort your GeForce NOW library by game store, genre, or game name, alphabetically.

These new options are available in the top right corner of the app when you click “SEE MORE” in the My Library and our sections - like Free to Play.

Keyboard Layout Control

Option to override automatic keyboard detection in the GeForce NOW app. The override takes effect once you launch your next game session.

Use this override if your physical keyboard layout doesn’t match the layout in your streaming session, keeping you from typing the correct characters. Read more about it in our knowledge base.

TL;DR: Now you can get back to trash talking in your native language.

App Polish

Improved the login experience for members that use Google accounts.

Fixed an error message that occurs if you try to launch a second stream using the same account. Don’t cross the streams. It would be bad.

More streaming quality of service improvements.

We shaved another 500ms off game startup time.

Bug Fixes

Removed infinite spinners some users were seeing on the play button for games in-app.

The marquee (top section) of our app could show a spinner if you have no internet connection

Fixed inconsistent localizations for some text strings

Streaming Quality Improvements

Streaming quality has been improved on networks with high packet loss.

Prevented streaming quality bars from appearing when our app falsely detects poor networks.

Improved game start-up-time from when you click a game in our app to when the stream starts by about 400ms. It ain’t much, but it’s honest work.

Patching and Maintenance Mode

All our apps - PC, macOS, SHIELD and Android - will now display patching and maintenance status for games. These messages appear on mouse hover (on PC and macOS), when you search for games from our search box and in game details.

Patching status means that game is currently being updated. They’re usually available again in a few hours, though occasionally it can take longer than that.

Maintenance means that the game has to be taken offline and may not be available to play for several days or, in rare cases, weeks.

App Polish and Bug Fixes

Fixed an app bug that allowed the option to +LIBRARY to be visible for games in the search bar when they were already in your library.

Fixed a problem that prevented some Japanese characters from working when you use them in the search bar.

Improved log in performance for some members who were experiencing long connection times.

An error message has been added for cases where members have upgraded to Founders, but the app still thinks they have Free memberships.

Fixed fuzzy text UI issues on high DPI displays, such as Retina notebooks and iMacs. This doesn’t change the text you see while streaming, but it will help improve in-app dialog boxes and messages.

Improved search results to no longer show cached games, which may no longer be available to play.

If you want to optimize further, check out these tips, and make sure you meet our streaming requirements.

Ready to finally upgrade that router? We have a list of recommended options, optimized for GeForce NOW.

User Interface Updates for Game Store Support

We’ve added a new UI callout to better identify which game store a game is available on. You’ll see this now on search, our marquee (top banner area) and in the game details.

Search for your game and you’ll see big, beautiful text for the supported game store.

Want to try this out? Type in “Wolcen” into the search bar.

Please note we do not list all platforms yet, but we are working on it.

Game Content Ratings

Content ratings have been added to the game details for all games, including ESRB, PEGI, USK, GRAC and CERO systems.

If a game does not have an official rating from those content rating systems, we instead provide our recommended age rating.

Other Changes

Improved Russian translations in the Streaming Quality section of our app. Большое спасибо Данил и Денис!

Several minor fixes introduced for people upgrading to Founders membership when the app doesn’t think purchase was completed.

Miscellaneous improvements for overall app quality, stability and reliability. You go for the win, we’ll handle the details.

GeForce NOW: GeForce Gaming, Available to All

We are excited to announce that our beta test period has ended, and GeForce NOW is open to everyone. Ready to get started? Read on.

GeForce NOW members in regions serviced by alliance partners (GFN.ru, LGU+, Softbank) will continue to experience the service as offered by those alliance partners. Look for updates from them for any service changes in their regions.

Search in More Languages

Our Search bar’s been studying - you can now search to find a specific game in our PC and macOS apps if it has a name in your language.

Want to find Fortnite? Sure, you can search for the game in English, but in South Korea the game is known as 포트나이트. Using either name will get you into the action.

Even if your chosen game doesn’t have a non-English name, you can now search using keywords or genres in your local language. Give it a try!

More Game Info

We’ve added more info to game details

Want to know if your chosen game has controller support, or includes multiplayer modes? You can find that info under the game’s details.

Other Changes

Fit and finish improvements, designed to make browsing the app easier and faster and improve overall stability. These are little details that maybe you won’t notice, but keep our UI designers up at night. Get some sleep, guys!

For instance, switching between rows when expanding the game details is much more comfortable, and it’s now much harder to accidentally change the game in the evidence panel as you move your mouse across the screen.

Added a workaround for macOS users with Japanese 106 key keyboard layouts that are unable to type an underscore (“_”) when streaming. Please use “SHIFT + _” when streaming.

Other miscellaneous fixes. You may not see them, but they’ll improve overall app quality, stability, and reliability.

Local Mouse Cursor Added

We now draw the mouse cursor locally in your app with games that use a hardware cursor, such as League of Legends and Path of Exile.

This improves latency, speeds up cursor response times, and improves game menu navigation, resulting in a better overall mouse feel.

Click the exclamation icon and let us know how the new cursor works for you. Your feedback helps us dial it in.

Gotta Go Fast

Game sessions will now launch even faster - by as much as 1.3 seconds. Every second you’re not in the game is a moment wasted, right?

New and Improved Network Tester

The time it takes to run a network test has been reduced from around 15 seconds to a mere five seconds. We are rolling this update out to each of our GeForce NOW data centers over the coming weeks, so it may take some time to reach everyone.

Need even more help with your connection? Click here.

New Highlights In-Game Overlay Shortcuts

Our new app updates some keyboard shortcuts used to activate the In-Game Overlay and record your content using NVIDIA Highlights.

The new shortcuts are Ctrl+G on PC or Cmd+G on Mac.

macOS 10.15 Catalina Support

macOS 10.15 Catalina is now supported. A few Catalina-specific notes below.

Catalina users will be notified that “NVIDIA GeForce NOW” is requesting access to your microphone the first time you run a game. You will only need to do this the first time you run a game on GeForce NOW.

There are changes by Apple in macOS 10.15 Catalina that change an application’s default access to mouse input. If you are using GeForce NOW with macOS 10.15 Catalina, your gaming experience may be different, and you may experience mouse acceleration when gaming. Please follow the instructions in this knowledge base article to change your experience to feel like previous macOS.

Other changes and squashed bugs

Turbo Mode (120 FPS) has been moved to the Competitive stream profile within the GeForce NOW app’s options. We have updated our apps to remove the Turbo Mode (120fps) from the custom streaming profile in the app settings. However, it is still available for you to use under the competitive streaming profile.

Other bug fixes to improve quality and reliability. Itty-bitty stuff that you probably didn’t even notice, but we fixed anyway.

Get In The Game Faster

Game sessions should launch 2-3 seconds faster, thanks to some backend magic in this update. That’s 10% faster on average.

Think of what you can do with this extra free time. You can learn a new language, or eat a pre-game snack. We vote snacks.

Game Patching Notifications

Our new app will now show if a game is patching before you launch it. Know before you go.

More info on our game patching process is a big priority for us, and we’re thrilled to make this easier for you.

Additional Language Support

The GeForce NOW app adds support for the following languages: UK English, Latin America Spanish, Slovak, Slovenian, Croatian.

Improved App Visuals

Various tweaks to the way the app looks, including small changes to top-banner game images. Kind of like when Mom licks a napkin to clean your little brother’s face, but it’s a software engineer and somehow less awkward.

Other Things

Parles-tu Français ? Because if you do and you use a French keyboard you might have found our problem with using the “@” symbol to login to digital stores or game launchers. We have written workaround steps here and are working on a real fix in a future app update.
