More COD options for cloud gamers
Nvidia made the announcement via a blog post that detailed the ins and outs of how this all works. It also confirmed that mobile gamers can enjoy console-quality gaming right in the palm of their hand when they attack a game controller like the really very good Backbone One.
Cloud-based gaming is in the ascendency right now as internet connections continue to improve and home Wi-Fi systems offer ever more responsive and lag-free gaming capabilities. Xbox Cloud Gaming is another option for gamers, especially those who own an Xbox and want to be able to play their games when away from home and don’t want to use remote play. In the case of GeForce Now, Ultimate members get access to some pretty beefy specs as well, making streaming a better option than buying a new gaming rig for many. They benefit from Nvidia DLSS 3 and Reflex thanks to the use of GeForce RTX 4080 systems sitting in a data center in the cloud.
