The GeForce NOW service will be powered by servers made possible with RTX 5080-class hardware featuring ray-traced graphics, high-performance DLSS 4.0, and ultra-low latency — even on lower-end PCs, Macs, Chromebooks, and mobile. Players will be able to instantly jump into games directly from the cloud, avoiding the time-consuming downloads and updates that come with large AAA games.All members, including those on the Ultimate tier, will be able to experience Battlefield 6 at up to 4K 120 FPS, streamed from NVIDIA’s latest RTX 5080 data centers.
The launch is expanding quickly and currently includes more data centers in even more regions, beginning with Ashburn (Virginia), Portland (Oregon), and London (UK). Six New Games Added to the Cloud, along with Battlefield 6, this week’s GeForce NOW update includes six other titles added to the platform’s library of cloud games.

With over 2,000 games in the GeForce NOW library, NVIDIA is continuously redefining cloud gaming as we know it.
New Discord Integration Goes Live
At Gamescom 2025, NVIDIA teased a new feature for GeForce NOW users, and it’s finally here. The Discord integration will officially go live this week, starting with Fortnite. The feature lets players launch games directly from Discord, see what friends are playing, and even stream their gameplay through GeForce NOW, all with an easy-to-use integration.
The Discord integration enhances social gaming by allowing players to connect with friends, squad up, and jump into a match — all without installation.NVIDIA claims this is just the beginning, as they look to deliver more Discord integration across even more games in future releases.
RTX 5080 Rollout Expands to New Regions
Gamers in Ashburn, Portland, and London will join regions supporting NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 5080-class servers. These upgrades support NVIDIA’s ongoing efforts to provide better performance globally and bring next-generation cloud gaming services to every corner of the globe.
New data centres provide faster response times, greater frame rates, and higher reliability — so even the most demanding titles, like Battlefield 6, work seamlessly in the cloud. Players can follow this rollout via the official server status page, with NVIDIA urging players to keep an eye out for future updates every GFN Thursday.
The Future of Cloud Gaming Looks Brighter Than Ever.
By launching Battlefield 6 on GeForce NOW, NVIDIA is once again taking the lead on the cloud gaming revolution — allowing players to enjoy blockbuster releases anywhere and anytime and on a number of devices.
