Geforce now, 'founders' subscriptions are over for coronavirus

Nvidia's GeForce Now has been subject to tons of setbacks by developers who have pulled out of service. However, it appears that Nvidia's game streaming service remains a success, as Founder's Edition subscriptions in Europe have been exhausted and the company expects the US follow soon.

GeForce Now Founder's Edition subscriptions in Europe are sold out

"As you can imagine, we are experiencing a substantial increase in the number of GeForce Now players and their playing time , " an Nvidia spokesperson said this week. "As a result, our founders' memberships are currently depleted in Europe, and we anticipate that North America will not be left behind."

We suspect that the increase in activity is due to the COVID-19 outbreak, as much of Europe is in a quarantine situation, with people unable to go to work, cafes, clubs, closed group meetings, and so on.

With all the uncertainty in the market and people's incomes, a service like GeForce Now came at the right time. With GeForce Now, you still have to buy your games through a service like Steam, but you can run the game on Nvidia's servers instead of having to buy a laptop or desktop computer to play. With a low monthly fee of just $ 4.99 a month, it's a great alternative to spending large amounts of money on a laptop or gaming desktop, especially since the first 90 days are free.
