At this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES), NVIDIA introduced a range of exciting new products, including the highly anticipated RTX 5000 series gaming GPUs, an AI model for training robots, a new desktop computer, and DLSS 4, its next-generation upscaling technology. To enhance gaming accessibility, the company also announced plans to establish a GeForce RTX-powered data center and expand its popular GeForce Now cloud gaming service to India.
For those unfamiliar, GeForce Now is NVIDIA’s cloud gaming service that leverages RTX graphics cards, enabling gamers to play the latest titles without the need for high-end hardware.
In a blog post, NVIDIA revealed that the new data center will utilize GeForce RTX 4080 GPUs, allowing users to play the latest AAA games in 4K resolution at 60fps. Although NVIDIA has not provided a specific launch date for the service in India, it is expected to go live in the first half of 2025.
To summarize, GeForce Now offers a free, ad-supported tier with gameplay in full HD (1080p) for up to an hour. It also includes a paid Performance tier supporting 1440p resolution at 60fps. Additionally, NVIDIA announced plans to introduce “Ultimate memberships” in the region. These memberships promise the shortest queue times, 100 hours of monthly gameplay with eight-hour session limits, and support for playing AAA titles in 4K resolution at 240fps.
