NVIDIA is expanding its GeForce NOW cloud gaming infrastructure with a new server cluster in Toronto powered by GeForce RTX 5080 GPUs. According to NVIDIA’s official announcement, this rollout aims to reduce latency for Canadian subscribers, providing high-performance streaming capabilities including 4K resolution and 120 frames per second.

Expanding Cloud Infrastructure in Canada

By localizing hardware, NVIDIA intends to provide "Ultimate" tier members with performance parity to local gaming PCs. This infrastructure supports advanced rendering features such as NVIDIA DLSS, hardware-accelerated ray tracing, and NVIDIA Reflex for input latency reduction. The company confirmed the servers will be active within days, targeting improved stability for users streaming across mobile devices, tablets, and smart TVs.

Integration of NTE: Neverness to Everness

The cloud-based version of NTE: Neverness to Everness is receiving a major content update, version 1.2, titled "999 Nights." This update introduces a permanent game mode on the "Warren Continent," featuring a dedicated progression system and two new playable characters, Shinku and Iroi.

NVIDIA also confirmed that it is developing native touch controls for the title. This feature is intended to allow players to interact with the game’s urban environment on mobile devices without external controllers. Because the game runs on NVIDIA’s servers, players can access this content immediately upon release without the need for local file downloads or storage space allocation.

Expansion of the Game Library

The GeForce NOW library is adding several titles this week, broadening the service’s support for both new releases and established franchises:

Cloud Gaming Just KILLED the Console! Nvidia GeForce Now RTX 5080 Hands-on
  • Esports Manager 2026: Available on Steam starting July 6.
  • Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced: Available on Steam and Ubisoft Connect starting July 9.
  • Granblue Fantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok: A demo version is now accessible via Steam.

The Endless Ragnarok expansion for Granblue Fantasy: Relink introduces new narrative content, including the introduction of the Beelzebub boss encounter and fresh co-op quest tiers. These additions utilize new summon-based combat mechanics and expanded character trait customization options.

Technical Requirements and Accessibility

GeForce NOW operates on a streaming-first model, which offloads computational requirements from the user’s local hardware to NVIDIA’s data centers.

Feature Specification
Max Resolution Up to 4K
Frame Rate Up to 120 FPS
Supported Tech DLSS, Ray Tracing, Reflex
Device Compatibility PC, Mac, Mobile, Handhelds, Smart TVs

The service eliminates the necessity for high-end local GPUs, as the RTX 5080-class power is managed entirely in the cloud. Users are required to have a stable high-speed internet connection to maintain the quality of the stream, particularly when utilizing 4K and 120 FPS settings.
