If you thought that owning expensive hardware was the only way to enjoy modern AAA games in all their glory, think again. There has to be some way to enjoy new games without necessarily spending lakhs on a new laptop or a PC. And Nvidia took note of this long back with the GeForce Now cloud gaming service that first launched in 2020 globally.

Now, Indian gamers will finally be able to take advantage of the service as GeForce Now is coming to India tomorrow, April 16. Once the service arrives, you will just need a decent internet connection to experience the latest titles. Here are 5 things you need to know about the same.

Survey Thank you for completing the survey! Also read: Asus Zenbook S14 in Digit Test Labs: Premium, sleek, but what else? 1. When is it available GeForce Now will officially start rolling out in India from April 16.

The company had originally planned a 2025 launch, but the launch was delayed to early 2026. Now, the rollout is finally happening, but there is a catch. This is not a full public release.

Nvidia is launching the service in a beta phase, which means not all players can just start experiencing the service at the beginning. This could be because Nvidia wants to test the service under real-world conditions before opening it up widely. The company is expected to gradually expand availability based on server performance and user feedback. 2.

Who can access the service So, who can access this new service? It will be the users who have already signed up on the GeForce Now India microsite. If you registered anytime over the past year, there is a good chance you might already have, or will receive an invite in your mailbox.

However, if you didn’t get an invite yet, it is a good idea to wait. Invites are usually sent in batches, so access may take time even if you have already registered. 3. How to register If you have not already signed up, you can still register on Nvidia’s GeForce Now India microsite.

While this does not guarantee immediate access, it does put you in the queue for future invites as the beta expands. In order to register, simply sign up using your Nvidia account and wait for an invitation. Once you receive access, you can log in and start linking your game libraries.

Since the rollout is gradual, early registration increases your chances of getting in sooner rather than later. 4. What games can you play GeForce Now does not sell games directly. Instead, it lets you stream titles you already own.

You can link platforms like Steam, Xbox, Epic Games, Ubisoft Connect, and GOG, and access your existing library through the cloud. The service supports over 4,500 games globally, and this library is expected to be available in India as well. This includes a mix of AAA titles and popular online games. 5.

What can you expect From a performance standpoint, NVIDIA is aiming high. The India rollout will be powered by Blackwell-based RTX 5080 infrastructure, including RTX 5080 SuperPODs. This enables features like ray tracing and DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation, along with high frame rate streaming.

Now, Nvidia has confirmed multiple tiers of the subscription including Free, Performance, and Ultimate. And you can expect varied benefits from these tiers, just as any other service. In the Ultimate tier, users can expect up to 4K at 120fps gaming experience, while lower-priced tiers will likely offer scaled-down performance.

It is worth mentioning that Nvidia has set up local servers in Mumbai, which should help reduce latency and improve overall responsiveness. The only question here remains the pricing, which is still under wraps for India. And this will play a key role in how quickly the service gains popularity amongst gamers in the country.
