GeForce NOW Steam Deck App Arrives

GeForce NOW is supercharging Valve’s Steam Deck with a new native app — delivering the high-quality GeForce RTX-powered gameplay members are used to on a portable handheld device.

It’s perfect to pair with the six new games available this week, including Tokyo Xtreme Racing from Japanese game developer Genki.

Stream Deck

At the CES trade show in January, GeForce NOW announced a native app for the Steam Deck, unlocking the full potential of Valve’s handheld device for cloud gaming.

The app is now available, and gamers can stream titles on the Steam Deck at up to 4K 60 frames per second — connected to a TV — with HDR10, NVIDIA DLSS 4 and Reflex technologies on supported titles. Plus, members can run these games at settings and performance levels that aren’t possible natively on the Steam Deck. To top it off, Steam Deck users can enjoy up to 50% longer battery life when streaming from an RTX gaming rig in the cloud.

Steam Deck gamers can dive into graphics-intense AAA titles with the new app. Play Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, Monster Hunter Wilds and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 at max settings — without worrying about hardware limits or battery drain.

Obliterate gaming limits on the go.

Plus, Steam Deck users can now access over 2,200 supported games on GeForce NOW, including from their Steam, Epic Games Store, Ubisoft, Battle.net and Xbox libraries, with over 180 supported PC Game Pass titles.

Get all the perks of an RTX 4080 GPU owner while using a handheld device, with battery savings and no overheating. Dock it to the TV for a big-screen experience, or game on the go. Unlock a massive game library, better visuals and access to games that wouldn’t run on the handheld before.

Download the native app from the GeForce NOW page and find a step-by-step guide on the support page for GeForce NOW on Steam Deck.

To celebrate the launch of the new native app, NVIDIA is giving away two prize bundles — each including a Steam Deck OLED and Steam Deck Dock — as well as some free GeForce NOW Ultimate memberships. Be on the lookout for a chance to win by following the GeForce NOW social media channels (X, Facebook, Instagram, Threads), using #GFNOnSteamDeck and following the sweepstakes instructions.

Racing for New Games

Tokyo Xtreme Racer plunges players into the high-stakes world of Japanese highway street racing, featuring open-road duels on Tokyo’s expressways. Challenge rivals in intense one-on-one battles, aiming to drain their Spirit Points by outdriving them through traffic and tight corners. With deep car customization and a moody, neon-lit atmosphere, the game delivers a unique and immersive street racing experience.
