Nvidia GeForce now marks a big hit with Cyberpunk 2077 on launch day

Nvidia's GeForce Now will support Cyberpunk 2077 when the game launches in September 2020. And, of course, that means subscribers to the game streaming service will be able to take advantage of RTX graphics, with Cyberpunk 2077 promising visuals of really beautiful ray tracing, and you won't need a gaming PC. super expensive to enjoy it all. In an announcement on its official forums, Nvida noted: "GeForce Now members will be able to grab their copy on Steam and play the game as soon as it's available." Remember that you must own a game to play it on Nvidia's streaming service (and GeForce Now must also support the title). This is a big step forward for GeForce Now, Nvidia needs an injection of positivity after the recent debacle where Activision Blizzard removed all of their games from the streaming service due to a bug in Nvidia's which didn't really go over well with many gamers. ...

Nvidia first?

As we mentioned, Cyberpunk 2077 will launch in September, and while it's not exclusive to Nvidia streaming, like it is on Google Stadia, it could be available first on GeForce Now. In fact, as PC Gamer reports, CD Projekt previously indicated that Cyberpunk 2077 wouldn't be coming to Stadia until after its release on PC and console. But that was announced before the game was pushed back to September, previously Cyberpunk 2077 was scheduled to release in April, so that may have changed. Either way, it's definitely coming to Google's game streaming service sometime in 2020, so if it's not at launch then soon after. Nvidia's announcement was received quite positively, as you might imagine, but some people have been skeptical of the recent Activision Blizzard controversy. One poster wrote: "After this announcement, I plan to pre-order Cyberpunk 2077 on Steam. Do you guarantee that (Nvidia) will refund this game if this situation changes until its release date or at least 1 year after its release?" In recent news about Cyberpunk 2077, Nvidia has also launched a competition where you can win a powerful GeForce RTX 2080 Ti graphics card in a limited edition decorated with the colors and logo of the game.
