Microsoft is planning to bring its PC Game Pass titles to Nvidia's GeForce Now cloud gaming streaming service, The Verge reports. The move was confirmed by Xbox executive Sarah Bond during an Xbox press conference in Los Angeles on Sunday, June 11.
Xbox Wire editor-in-chief Joe Skrebels also said in a blog post that players will be able to stream PC Game Pass's catalog of games on any device that has GeForce Now, such as a PC, Mac, Chromebook, mobile device, or TV. The feature will be officially rolled out by the company in the coming months.
PC Game Pass Games Coming to GeForce Now
The plan will bring a lot of benefits to PC Game Pass subscribers, giving them access to Nvidia's powerful cloud game streaming service with RTX 4080-level performance. In The Verge's testing, GeForce Now's RTX 4080-level outperformed Microsoft's own Xbox Cloud Gaming offering in terms of performance and latency.
That also means GeForce Now will get the Microsoft Store and the platform's range of apps will be greatly expanded.
Microsoft's plan is part of a new partnership between the company and Nvidia that will see Xbox PC games come to GeForce Now. Microsoft signed a 10-year deal with Nvidia earlier this year to provide Xbox PC games to GeForce Now as part of an effort to appease regulators over its billion-dollar deal with Activision Blizzard.
