Nvidia GeForce NOW Adds New Games and Exclusive Rewards in Latest October 2025 Update
Nvidia continues to expand its cloud gaming ecosystem with a fresh GeForce NOW update, adding a new lineup of playable titles and introducing a rewards program for its growing subscriber base. This latest rollout not only enhances the overall gaming experience but also brings exclusive bonuses for Ultimate-tier members.
GeForce NOW Rewards Program Officially Launches
Nvidia has kicked off a brand-new GeForce NOW Rewards Program, offering exclusive in-game perks and bonuses to its subscribers. To mark the launch, Ultimate members are receiving a Borderlands 4 Golden Key, an item that unlocks rare loot and special weapons in the game.
The offer is available until November 16, 2025, or while supplies last. Nvidia confirmed that more rewards will arrive in December, teasing an ongoing lineup of member-only bonuses.
According to Nvidia, all members are automatically enrolled — no sign-up or extra steps required. Once a new reward becomes available, subscribers receive an email with redemption details directly in their inbox. This seamless approach makes it easy for gamers to claim their bonuses without missing out.
New Games Join the GeForce NOW Cloud Library
As part of the October update, several new games have been added to the GeForce NOW cloud streaming platform, expanding its already diverse library. These titles are now available to stream instantly across devices, including PCs, Macs, mobile phones, and smart TVs.
Here’s the list of newly supported games:
Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow (Ubisoft Connect, released October 14)
The stealth-action classic returns, offering players the chance to relive Sam Fisher’s covert missions in enhanced form.
Ball x Pit (Steam & Xbox, PC Game Pass, released October 15)
A physics-based indie platformer blending fast-paced challenges with puzzle-solving gameplay.
Escape from Duckov (Steam, released October 16)
A quirky survival-action game where players must navigate chaotic environments and absurd challenges.
Fellowship (Steam, released October 16)
An immersive RPG experience focused on teamwork, strategy, and adventure-driven storytelling.
Pax Dei (Xbox, PC Game Pass, Steam & Epic Games Store, 1.0 release on October 16)
The long-awaited full release of this community-driven MMO invites players into a vast medieval world filled with crafting, combat, and exploration.
Amnesia: The Bunker (Epic Games Store, free from October 16–23)
The critically acclaimed horror title is now part of the GeForce NOW lineup — and is temporarily free for all Epic Games Store users.
Earth vs. Mars Demo (Steam)
A futuristic real-time strategy demo that pits humanity against Martian invaders.
Street Fighter V (Steam)
The beloved fighting franchise enters the cloud arena, letting players brawl anywhere with low-latency performance.
Ultra Street Fighter IV (Steam)
Another fighting classic joins the list, giving fans a double dose of Capcom’s most iconic series.
Wobbly Life (Xbox, available via PC Game Pass)
A fun, physics-based sandbox game where players explore an open world full of mini-games and silly adventures.
Control Gets RTX 5080 Server Support
In addition to these game additions, Nvidia also revealed that Remedy Entertainment’s “Control” now supports the new RTX 5080 servers available for GeForce NOW Ultimate members. These servers deliver next-generation performance, ray tracing, and DLSS technology, providing console-quality visuals directly through the cloud.
This means that Ultimate-tier players can now experience Control’s supernatural action and stunning ray-traced lighting effects at even higher fidelity and smoother frame rates, all without needing a high-end gaming PC.
A Growing Ecosystem for Cloud Gamers
GeForce NOW continues to be one of the leading platforms in the cloud gaming industry, offering players instant access to their personal game libraries across multiple storefronts such as Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox, and Ubisoft Connect.
Unlike subscription-based services like Xbox Game Pass, GeForce NOW requires players to own the games they want to play, or have them available through an active Game Pass license. Once connected, users can stream their games with ultra-low latency from Nvidia’s powerful cloud servers — no downloads, no installations, and no hardware limitations.
With its frequent updates, new game additions, and the recent introduction of rewards, Nvidia is clearly doubling down on enhancing GeForce NOW’s value for both casual and hardcore gamers.⁸
