NVIDIA's cloud gaming service GeForce NOW is getting a fresh batch of titles this week. Eight new games are joining the library, and the headliner is 'Halo: Campaign Evolved' — a version of the classic shooter that brings the Master Chief's original story to the streaming platform.
What's joining the service
The eight new games span a mix of genres. Alongside the Halo entry, players can stream 'The Last Campfire', a puzzle-adventure from Hello Games, and 'Songs of Conquest', a turn-based strategy title. Other additions include 'The Riftbreaker', 'Gord', 'Diluvian Ultra', 'Spirit of the North 2', and 'The Entropy Centre'. All are available to play now for subscribers.
GeForce NOW lets people play PC games they already own on services like Steam, Epic Games Store, and Ubisoft Connect — but streamed from NVIDIA's servers. That means a laptop or even a phone can run graphically demanding titles, as long as the internet connection is solid.
RTX performance on everyday hardware
The service's big selling point is that it can deliver RTX-level performance — ray tracing and DLSS — on devices that wouldn't normally handle it. You don't need a $1,500 graphics card. A modest laptop, a Mac, or even an Android phone can stream games at high settings if the connection is fast enough.
NVIDIA has been steadily expanding the GeForce NOW library. The company says it now supports over 1,800 games. The addition of 'Halo: Campaign Evolved' is notable because it's a Microsoft-published title, showing the platform's reach beyond just PC storefronts.
How the new games fit in
'Halo: Campaign Evolved' is a remastered version of the original Halo: Combat Evolved campaign. It's been available on PC for a while, but streaming it means players without a gaming rig can jump into the sci-fi shooter. The other seven games are a mix of indie hits and lesser-known titles, which is typical for GeForce NOW's weekly updates.
For subscribers, the new games are accessible immediately. The free tier gives you one-hour sessions with standard rigs, while the Priority and Ultimate tiers offer longer sessions and access to RTX-powered servers. The Ultimate tier, at $19.99 a month, promises performance comparable to a GeForce RTX 4080.
NVIDIA hasn't said whether more Halo games will follow. But for now, fans of the franchise have a new way to play the campaign that started it all — no console required.
