Black Myth: Wukong and FINAL FANTASY XVI Demo Come to GeForce NOW

GeForce NOW continues with its weekly updates, bringing more and more PC games and features to the service. This week’s highlights include the availability of the highly anticipated action RPG Black Myth: Wukong and a demo for the upcoming PC release of FINAL FANTASY XVI. These AAA titles can be streamed at peak performance, even on low-powered devices.

Further improving accessibility, Xbox automatic sign-in will be introduced on August 22nd, streamlining the process for members to access their favourite PC games. These updates, announced at Gamescom, build upon recent milestones such as added mod support, new data centres, and an expanding library of 2,000 games available in the cloud.

Get Your Game Face On

GeForce NOW recently celebrated 2,000 games in the cloud, thanks to strong collaborations with publishers that have brought their titles to the platform. New games are added weekly from popular digital gaming stores Steam, Epic Games Store, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, and Xbox, including over 140 PC Game Pass titles. Powered by up to GeForce RTX GPU-class graphics, GeForce NOW is bringing even more top titles from celebrated publishers to the cloud. Members can be among the first to play Black Myth: Wukong without waiting for downloads or worrying about system requirements.

Take on the role of Sun Wukong the Monkey King, wielding the powers of a magical staff throughout a richly woven narrative filled with mythical creatures and formidable foes. Learn to harness Wukong’s unique abilities and combat styles, reminiscent of the Soulslike game genre. As the “Destined One,” take on various challenges to uncover the truth hidden beneath the veil of a glorious historical legend.

Witness the beauty of ancient China – from snow-draped mountains to intricate cave networks – in exquisite detail elevated by NVIDIA RTX technologies, including full ray tracing and DLSS 3. The GeForce NOW Ultimate membership brings this visual splendor to life at 4K resolution and 120 frames per second, even on underpowered devices, streaming from GeForce RTX 4080 SuperPODs in the cloud.

The latest mainline numbered entry in the renowned RPG series from Square Enix, FINAL FANTASY XVI is coming soon to the cloud. Get a taste of the title’s high-octane action, breathtaking world and epic storytelling in its PC demo on GeForce NOW. Members can learn to master their Eikonic abilities while battling colossal foes and exploring the stunning realm of Valisthea.

Try the demo on GeForce NOW to jump right into an epic adventure without worrying about system specs.

GeForce NOW members can play these titles and more at high performance. Ultimate members can stream at up to 4K resolution and 120 FPS with support for NVIDIA DLSS and NVIDIA Reflex technology, and experience the action even on low-powered devices. Keep an eye out on GFN Thursdays for the latest on game release dates in the cloud.

Set It and Forget It

GeForce NOW makes gaming more convenient by letting members link their gaming accounts directly to the cloud service. Starting Aug. 22, such support extends to Xbox accounts – alongside existing support for Epic Games and Ubisoft automatic sign-in – enabling seamless access across devices.

After linking their Xbox profiles just once, members will be signed in automatically across their devices for all future GeForce NOW sessions – speeding access to their favorite PC games, from Fallout 76 to Starfield to Forza Horizon 5.

This new feature joins Xbox game library sync on GeForce NOW, which allows members to sync their supported Xbox Game Pass and Microsoft Store games to their cloud streaming library. Members will enjoy a more unified gaming experience with the ability to instantly play over 140 Xbox Game Pass titles across devices.

With a steady drumbeat of quality games from top publishers and new features to continuously improve the service, GeForce NOW is a gamer’s gateway to high-performance gaming from the cloud, enabling play on any device with real-time ray tracing and high resolutions. Check back every GFN Thursday for more news on upcoming game launches, new game releases, service updates and more.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
