But in its current form, GeForce Now is well worth it for those who want to play PC games on the go. Should publishers like Activision and Square-Enix ever decide to make their games compatible with it, GeForce Now will become the absolute best game streaming service on the market. The ability to access a sizable portion of one’s gaming library from anywhere is a huge selling point, as is the nearly nonexistent input lag and latency (with a strong internet connection). Bottom lineĪlthough it lacks the ease of use of Google Stadia or the robust gaming library of Project xCloud, GeForce Now is a fantastic game streaming service. With optimal conditions, GeForce Now is a wonderful alternative to the Nintendo Switch. The obvious drawback is that you may experience poor gaming sessions in areas with questionable internet and Wi-Fi.

But if you’re on the road and have a gaming laptop, the Nvidia Shield, or an Android device, you can get good mileage out of GeForce Now (pun intended). If you have access to your PC, there’s no point in streaming games you can play locally on your computer. With that said, if your internet connection is solid, you’re going to have no issues playing games on GeForce Now.Īlthough not overtly advertised as such, GeForce Now is most useful for players who do a lot of traveling. Others who may live in parts of the country with spotty internet may not get the same results. Of course, this is because of my speedy Verizon Fios internet. The games looked great and played smoothly. Games like Assassin’s Creed II from Steam, Apex Legends from EA Origin, Dauntless from the Epic Games Store, and Watch Dogs 2 from UPlay ran as if I was playing them locally from my PC.
During my tests, I experienced no noticeable input lag or latency.
Latency and input lag can kill any streaming service and is the sole reason some gamers balk at the idea of streaming games. You can also manually change the bit rate, resolution, frame rate, and adjust for poor network connections. Competitive prioritizes minimizing input latency but at the expense of resolution. Data Saver minimizes the amount of data used but still delivers good image quality and gameplay.

Balanced takes full advantage of available bandwidth to deliver the best image quality and gameplay. The Nvidia GeForce Now experience is undoubtedly one of the best around right now, not just in terms of low-latency performance but graphics, frame rate and detail, but much of that experience will depend on which tier of GFN you subscribe to.
