#GeForce NOW

Starting next year, NVIDIA’s cloud gaming service, GeForce Now, will undergo a significant policy change with a new monthly playtime limit for subscribers. In a recent announcement, NVIDIA revealed that beginning January 1, 2025, new GeForce Now users will have a 100-hour playtime cap per month. NVIDIA explained that the playtime restriction allows the company to maintain the current subscription prices for the “foreseeable future.” According to NVIDIA, most GeForce Now users currently game well below the 100-hour threshold, making this cap manageable for the majority. Ultimate members continue to enjoy high-quality 4K streaming with 120 FPS, while Performance members will now benefit from improved 1440p resolution, ultrawide support, and seamless graphic setting carry-over between sessions. The decision to implement a playtime cap, while initially surprising, reflects NVIDIA’s strategy to manage GeForce Now’s growing user base without hiking prices. NVIDIA has announced that GeForce NOW has upgraded its support for higher resolution and frame rates via the Chrome or Edge browser on PC. The upgraded gaming experience will see RTX 3080 members able to now experience gameplay up to 1440p in resolution and up to 120 frames per second right in the user's browser. Users won't need to install any additional app but only log into play.geforcenow.com through a supported browser and navigate to the GeForce NOW Settings menu.
