NVIDIA today announced its next-generation cloud gaming platform —
delivering GeForce RTX™ 3080-class gaming on GeForce NOW™ —
available exclusively in a new, high-performance membership tier.
The GeForce NOW RTX 3080 membership tier provides gamers with
access to the greatest-ever generational leap in GeForce® history,
delivering cloud gaming’s highest resolutions and fastest frame
rates, paired with the lowest latency.
Each cloud GeForce NOW SuperPOD consists of over 1,000 GPUs that
deliver more than 39 petaflops of graphics horsepower. Each
instance is 35 teraflops of performance, nearly 3x that of an Xbox
Series X.
“Gaming is enjoying a multi-decade expansion as technology
continues to make new game experiences possible. There are more
genres than ever. The lines between gaming, sport, art and social
are increasingly blurred in video games,” said NVIDIA founder and
CEO Jensen Huang.
“While we continue to drive the most advanced gaming technology
with GeForce RTX, we have dedicated the past decade to refining and
expanding GeForce NOW cloud gaming to bring the best gaming
platform to anyone with a computer. I am thrilled to announce our
second-generation GeForce NOW SuperPOD — it’s a giant leap
forward,” he said.
Next-Generation Gaming on Nearly Any DeviceThe
new GeForce NOW RTX 3080 membership enables games to run at up to
1440p on PC and Mac clients, 4K HDR on NVIDIA SHIELD®, and up to
120 FPS in the PC, Mac and Android apps. GeForce NOW RTX 3080
members will also have exclusive access to RTX 3080 cloud gaming
rigs — slices of the SuperPOD — configured with AMD Threadripper™
PRO CPUs, 28GB of DDR-3200 memory and PCI-GEN4 SSDs. GeForce NOW
RTX 3080 members also get the longest session lengths and the most
control over persistent in-game settings of any membership
tier.
Leveraging NVIDIA Adaptive Sync technology, GeForce NOW reduces
system latency and syncs frames to provide the smoothest cloud
gameplay, with the lowest measured end-to-end latency. While most
users will experience a discernible reduction in latency, RTX 3080
members streaming at 120 FPS will observe the greatest benefits
through high frame rate synchronization. In the lowest latency
mode, these members can experience total latency as low as 60ms —
comparable to the latest game consoles.
The Most Most-Played GamesGeForce NOW members
have access to over 1,100 games, with more released every “GFN
Thursday.” The deep catalog features many of the world’s
most-played games, with free-to-play titles like Fortnite, DOTA 2,
Apex Legends, Destiny 2 and more.
GeForce NOW members also have access to many major fall and
upcoming holiday launch titles with RTX ON in supported games,
including Far Cry 6, New World, Marvel’s Guardian of the Galaxy,
Dying Light 2 and NARAKA: BLADEPOINT. Recently added games include
some of Electronic Arts’ biggest franchises: Battlefield, Mirror’s
Edge, Unravel and Dragon Age.
