Should you attempt to enroll in Nvidia GeForce Now, the GPU maker’s recreation streaming service that permits you to stream your PC video games on different gadgets, you at present can’t. Each tier of service has a “offered out” discover above it, with no indication as to when individuals will be capable of enroll once more. However don’t fret, it’s coming again quickly — properly, a part of it’s, anyway.
Nvidia spokesperson Stephenie Ngo instructed epicgamejourney that it expects to have the ability to welcome new sign-ups “in roughly two weeks with Day Passes.” So, you continue to received’t have the option to enroll in the one-month or six-month plans, however you’ll at the very least be capable of pay to play video games sooner or later at a time.
As for why the service at present isn’t accepting new members, Ngo instructed epicgamejourney that Nvidia is “at present transitioning to a brand new fee supplier.” Throughout that transition, it’s pausing new sign-ups, Day Passes, and present card purchases. The corporate posted on the GeForce Now subreddit in late January, saying the total transition is predicted to take “a minimal of 5 weeks.” Ngo says that present members aren’t affected by these modifications.
In contrast to Xbox Recreation Cross, which has a curated catalog of video games you stream in full, or obtain to an Xbox or PC, GeForce Now permits you to stream solely the video games you personal on PC platforms, plus some free-to-play video games. It may pull in lots of (however not all) video games from Steam, the Epic Video games Retailer, and the Xbox recreation retailer. And notably, it permits you to stream them in top quality by means of one in every of its Nvidia RTX-powered virtualized rigs. In my expertise, video games look higher by means of GeForce Now than Xbox Cloud Gaming, since Nvidia’s service has a tier that goes as much as 4K at 240 frames per second.
GeForce Now could be accessible on quite a few gadgets, starting from handhelds to TVs. Nvidia introduced at CES 2025 {that a} native app might be coming to the Steam Deck someday in 2025. So, at the very least it’s getting the fee supplier transition out of the way in which earlier than that arrives.
