That gaming backlog won’t clear itself — GeForce NOW is here to help. Stream the latest titles straight from the cloud across a variety of devices.
This week, five new titles are ready to play instantly in the cloud gaming platform’s library. Screamer drifts onto the scene with retro‑racing attitude and pixel‑perfect speed. Plus, Honkai: Star Rail Version 4.1, “Unraveled for Daybreak,” touches down.
Hit the Gas
The ‘90s called — it wants the cloud.
Screamer from Milestone roars back onto the track as a blistering arcade racer that thrives on speed, precision and pure retro attitude.
Tight corners and neon‑soaked straights define a style built for thrill seekers who crave the rush of classic ‘90s racing action. The mix of sharp visuals, snappy handling and roaring engines creates an experience that’s equal parts vintage energy and modern muscle.
Running on GeForce NOW, Screamer puts pedal to the metal with ultralow latency and buttery‑smooth streaming. In the cloud, every race launches instantly, every drift hits with full force and every victory feels just a little louder.
Let’s Play Today
All aboard the Astral Express.

Detective Ashveil joins as a new five-star Lightning hunter, chasing conspiracies hidden behind the glitz of the Phantasmoon Games. Dive into the new Wispae War Saga, enjoy free Warps and explore fresh Divergent Universe content filled with rewards and events. Play the latest Honkai: Star Rail update instantly on GeForce NOW — no installs, just starlight and action.

Screamer (New release on Steam, March 26, GeForce RTX 5080-ready)
March is in full bloom, and that means a fresh wave of games heading to the cloud. 15 new titles are joining the GeForce NOW library this month.
Leading the March lineup is Pearl Abyss’ Crimson Desert, an open‑world action‑adventure set in a war‑torn fantasy land, alongside plenty of other games to explore. Whether looking to shake off the winter blues or jump into some bracket‑worthy gaming action, there’s something for everyone in the cloud.
March into the cloud and see what’s new — and keep an eye on GFN Thursdays all month for more updates. This week kicks off the month with eight new games.
March Gaming Madness
In LORT we trust.
LORT dials chaos up to 11 and snaps the knob clean off. Big Distraction’s off‑the‑rails adventure hurls players into a world where every corner hides a bad idea waiting to become a great story, powered by wild weapons, weirder characters and “Did that just happen?” moments. Catch every glorious disaster in full fidelity and play it on GeForce NOW, available this week.
Here’s are this week’s eight new additions:
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II (New release on Xbox, available on Game Pass, March 3, GeForce RTX 5080-ready)
Legacy of Kain: Defiance Remastered (New release on Steam, available March 3)
Esoteric Ebb (New release on Steam, available March 3)
The Legend of Khiimori (New release on Steam, available March 3, GeForce RTX 5080-ready)
Slay the Spire 2 (New release on Steam, available March 5)
Break out the cake and green sprinkles — GeForce NOW is turning six.
Since launch, members have streamed over 1 billion hours, and the party’s just getting started.
Throughout February, members can look forward to new games, fresh ways to play across more devices and even more ways to bring RTX power to every screen in the house.
There’s plenty to celebrate: the February games list kicks off with 24 new games. Start with the 10 new games in the cloud this week, including the launch of Team Jade’s Delta Force and the newest title launching in the PUBG universe, PUBG: BLINDSPOT.
Reporting for Duty
The ultimate extraction.
Delta Force, now boots on the ground and fully deployed on GeForce NOW, brings the tactical first‑person shooter from Team Jade (TiMi Studio Group) to the cloud. The game features high-stakes extraction with an all-out warfare mode, giving players a playground of open environments, vehicles and gadgets to pull off coordinated assaults.
Players join elite units tasked with tackling high‑risk missions across sprawling maps, from tight urban incursions to rugged open‑terrain operations. Expect strategic objectives, combined‑arms combat with land, air and sea vehicles, and tense firefights where teamwork and planning are just as important as quick reflexes.
On GeForce NOW, Delta Force leans into its high‑octane personality: fast drops, big maps and cinematic engagements that look sharp and feel responsive across devices. Members can squad up from almost anywhere, enjoy high‑resolution streaming and smooth performance, and stay ready for every op without waiting on downloads or big updates before jumping into the next mission.
New Mission
Squad up.
PUBG: BLINDSPOT, a new spin-off set in the PUBG universe from Krafton, expands the franchise with a standalone 5v5 top-down tactical shooter.
Set across tightly designed maps, matches focus on information, positioning and coordinated team play, with squads clearing angles, locking down objectives and outmaneuvering opponents in fast, round-based firefights. Every callout and ability use matters, turning each round into a layered tactical puzzle rather than a simple test of reflexes.
On GeForce NOW, responsive streaming and sharp RTX-powered visuals keep every angle, rotation and clutch play feeling precise, even on lower-powered devices. With support across a wide range of screens, the cloud makes it easy for the gaming squad to jump right into the action, without lengthy downloads or updates getting in the way.
Feelin’ February
Kick off GeForce NOW’s anniversary month in style. Here’s what’s in store to start the celebration, with this week’s 10 new additions:

Welcome to the Zone
Trust no one, file everything.
Quarantine Zone: The Last Check drops into the cloud this week, bringing the eerie isolation and grim decision-making of its Steam debut to any device powered by GeForce NOW.
Armed with advanced screening tools and instincts, players are put in charge of a critical checkpoint during a zombie outbreak — where one wrong choice could let the infection slip past the post. Screen survivors, manage scarce resources and hold back the undead. Holding the line is only the beginning — reinforce defenses and keep the camp alive as chaos intensifies with each passing day.
Quarantine Zone: The Last Check streams at full GeForce RTX 5080 power for GeForce NOW Ultimate members, bringing razor-sharp visuals and ultrasmooth performance to every tense border crossing. Every document check, difficult decision and late-night shift in the guard booth hits harder with maxed-out settings and buttery frame rates, all without long installs or hardware worries getting in the way of the paranoia.
No trip through the Devolver catalog would be complete without revisiting its eclectic, chaotic hits already streaming on GeForce NOW. Check out Cult of the Lamb, Ball x Pit, Hotline Miami, Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number, Inscryption and Enter the Gungeon — where every dodge roll matters and every chest hides mayhem.
Each of these titles showcases Devolver’s knack for daring design and unforgettable worlds — now all one click away through GeForce NOW.
Time to Play
Sink into the shadows and steal everything that isn’t nailed down.
Styx: Shards of Darkness sneaks back in with a signature goblin grin and a dagger never too far from trouble. Published by Focus Home Interactive, this stealth adventure leans into vertical level design, tight shadows and sarcastic commentary from gaming’s most lovable little assassin. Expect big, open environments to pick apart, a toolkit full of invisibility tricks, traps and clones, and plenty of chances to turn a quiet infiltration into chaotic improv when plans go sideways.
In addition, members can look for the following:
Quarantine Zone: The Last Check (New release on Steam, Jan. 12, GeForce RTX 5080-ready)
Star Wars Outlaws (Ubisoft Connect, now available on Xbox Game Pass)
