Hey gamers! It’s another GeForce NOW Thursday, and we’ve got exciting news. This week, we’re talking about powerful new tech and some awesome games you can play with ray tracing (RTX) on GeForce NOW. Let’s dive in!
New Blackwell GPUs Power Up GeForce NOW
NVIDIA just showed off their new Blackwell GPUs at CES 2025, and they’re a big deal. These GPUs are super fast and will make GeForce NOW even better. They use the latest tech to deliver amazing graphics, like real-time ray tracing, which makes games look incredibly realistic with lifelike lighting and shadows. Plus, they’re energy-efficient, so we’re helping the planet while boosting your gaming.
These GPUs are rolling out to GeForce NOW data centers, starting with cities like Dallas and Montreal. This means Ultimate members will get even smoother gameplay with up to 4K resolution at 120 FPS. It’s like upgrading your gaming rig without buying a single piece of hardware!
RTX Games Steal the Show
GeForce NOW is all about bringing you the best gaming experience, and ray tracing is a huge part of that. This week, two RTX-powered games are joining the platform:
- The Waylanders: A fantasy RPG with stunning visuals, time-travel twists, and Celtic-inspired lore. It’s now available to stream with RTX ON, so expect gorgeous lighting and immersive worlds.
