Another batch of games has joined the library of games playable through NVIDIA's cloud streaming service, GeForce NOW, headlined by two new releases, while an old release finally becomes RTX 5080-ready, just in time for its latest major DLC expansion release.
Starting with the new games entering GeForce NOW this week, there are four titles in total joining the library. The first two brand-new releases are Samson: A Tyndalston Story, the debut game from independent developer Liquid Swords, and the second new release is Morbid Metal, a hack-and-slash rougelike from developer Screen Juice, published by Ubisoft.
Morbid Metal is launching on Steam in early access, while Samson is just out in its 1.0 version. Though if you check out my review of Samson (or even just the studio head's message to players where he acknowledged the state of the game to be "unacceptable"), you'll see why it could've probably used an 'Early Access' sticker on it to help players understand why it's so riddled with technical issues.
Both Morbid Metal and Samson: A Tyndalston Story are also RTX 5080-ready and can be streamed with NVIDIA's top-end hardware, but as previously mentioned, they're not the only titles getting that honor. Starfield is the other major title that will now be RTX 5080-ready, just in time for the arrival of its Terran Armada DLC and Free Lanes update. Which, also just so happens to coincide with its launch on PS5.
Morbid Metal isn't the only Ubisoft-published title part of this week's batch, as the other Ubisoft game is Rayman: 30th Anniversary Edition, the definitive edition of the first Rayman game with more than 120 additional levels and a documentary that digs into the game's importance within video games and its history.
Lastly, DayZ enters the service to round out this week's batch. Here's the full list of games joinning NVIDIA's GeForce NOW this week:
