GeForce NOW Will Be Adding 19 Games In March, 3 New Titles This Week

by Rainier on March 2, 2023 @ 6:00 a.m. PST

GeForce NOW taps into the thriving PC gaming ecosystem by streaming games from NVIDIA GPUs in the cloud, this week adding 3 new titles to its library.

When you fire up your favorite game, you’re playing it instantly. That’s what it means to be Game Ready on GeForce NOW. The experience has been optimized for cloud gaming and includes Game Ready Driver performance improvements. NVIDIA manages the game updates and patches. And when a game supports RTX, you can play it on GeForce NOW with beautifully ray-traced graphics and DLSS 2.0.

The GeForce NOW library is ever-growing. In an effort to help spotlight the games that are coming to the service, we’re moving to a monthly cadence for announcing new instant access games. Games will continue to be released every week – with new game launches available day-and-date, and back catalog games released each Thursday – but our members, and your readers, will now be able to learn about what’s coming a little further in advance.

March is already here and a new month always means new games, with a total of 19 joining the GeForce NOW library.

Set off on a magical journey to restore Disney magic when Disney Dreamlight Valley joins the cloud later this month. Plus, the hunt is on with Capcom’s Monster Hunter Rise now available for all members to stream, as is major new content for Battlefield 2042 and Destiny 2.

Stay tuned to GFN Thursday for future updates on the first Microsoft titles coming to GeForce NOW.

Once Upon a Time in the Cloud

Embark on a dream adventure when Disney Dreamlight Valley from Gameloft releases in the cloud on Thursday, March 16. In this life-sim adventure game, Disney and Pixar characters live in harmony until the Forgetting threatens to destroy the wonderful memories created by its inhabitants. Help restore Disney magic to the Valley and go on an enchanting journey — full of quests, exploration and beloved Disney and Pixar friends.

Live the Disney dream life while collecting thousands of decorative items inspired by Disney and Pixar worlds to personalize gamers’ own unique homes in the Valley. The game’s latest free update, “A Festival of Friendship,” brings even more features, items and characters to interact with.

Disney fans of all ages will enjoy seeing their favorite characters, from Disney Encanto’s Mirabel to The Lion King’s Scar, throughout the game when it launches in the cloud later this month. Members can jump onto their PC, Mac and other devices to start the adventure without having to worry about download times, system requirements or storage space.

March Madness

Starting off the month is Capcom’s popular action role-playing game Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, including Free Title Update 4, which brings the return of the Elder Dragon Velkhana, lord of the tundra that freezes all in its path. The game is now available for GeForce NOW members to stream, so new and returning Hunters can seamlessly bring their monster hunting careers to the cloud.

New content is also available for members to stream this week for blockbuster titles. Eleventh Hour is the latest season release for Battlefield 2042, including a new map, specialist, weapon and vehicle to help players dominate the battle.

Lightfall, Destiny 2’s latest expansion following last year’s The Witch Queen, brings Guardians one step closer to the conclusion of the “Light and Darkness saga.” Experience a brand new campaign, Exotic gear and weapons, a new six-player raid, and more as players prepare for the beginning of the end.
