GeForce Now Updated its Premium Streaming Service for Chrome
Colin Smith — August 19, 2022 — Tech
NVIDIA announced a new update for its GeForce Now browser application that allows for users to stream games directly into Google Chrome. The in-browser game streaming application previously allowed users to stream games at resolutions up to 1080p with framerates up to 60 frames per second. The new update brings resolutions of up to 1440p and framerates as high as 120fps to individuals who pay for the premium 'RTX 3080' subscription tier.
This adds a high level of attractiveness to the GeForce Now game-streaming service, as these resolutions and framerates were only previously accessible on the mobile application or the native PC application. With this update, a wider consumer base will be able to access high-quality next-generation gaming experiences.
