NVIDIA is launching a native GeForce Now app on the Steam Deck and browser versions on major mixed reality headsets.

I don’t really get the benefit of this? Being able to play games that don’t work on Linux because of anti cheat?

Or just playing games with higher graphics settings that the Steam Deck wouldn’t be able to run.

Is geforce now any good? I tried the free version way back when and didn’t think it was as good as steam link. I then considered paying for it but the reviews I saw lead me to decide not to. It was a while back though so maybe it’s improved?

Xbox Gamepass also has cloud streaming, it’s cheaper in my region and has a gazillion more games.

Yeah I’ve set this up already. I wouldn’t chose to play it this way over an install but it’s great for a quick play of something random

It’s amazing, the only issue is not all games are released there by default.

Maybe I’ll check it out. Thanks

This is amazing news!!
