GeForce NOW: From the Shadows, A New Power Rises

A Cloud Gaming Beast

GeForce NOW is delivering a powerful new line‐up this week, with a HUGE 11 new games joining the library! Leading the charge is Techland’s new adrenaline‐fueled chapter, Dying Light: The Beast. The release also coincides with the latest GeForce RTX 5080-class upgrade to GeForce NOW’s server fleet, with Japan being the latest region to receive the next-generation power.

Also, those with Ultimate memberships can also get stuck into a number of other exciting releases, including new expansions for popular titles, alongside free gifts! Read on for all of the details!

Unleash the Beast

Dying Light: The Beast is clawing its way into the cloud – and it’s hungry! The Dying Light series is known for its fast-paced, parkour-fueled survival horror gameplay, and this latest instalment cranks the tension up to 11. Players will navigate infected streets and scale rooftops with fluid parkour as they battle through relentlessly terrifying nights, as well as being introduced to new abilities and enemy types!

Degrees of Delight

This is where learning gets weird. For gamers who love simulation and strategy games with quirky humour, Two Point Campus and the new Two Point Museum provide tickets to all the fun. These gems from SEGA put players in charge of building, customising and running their own campus and museum, filled with eccentric characters and unpredictable events!

In Two Point Campus, design sprawling college grounds, hire lively staff, schedule offbeat courses and watch students thrive (or watch chaos unfold!). Curate wild exhibits, draw crowds and manage mishaps while crafting the ultimate cultural destination. Both games blend classic simulation mechanics with fresh, whimsical stories.

New Shadows

Claws out, gamers! The latest Assassin’s Creed Shadows expansion, Claws of Awaji, is here and streaming day-and-date on GeForce NOW! The shadows grow sharper as the expansion takes assassins to the Awaji Islands, introducing a dangerous new enemy faction. The expansion provides a fresh storyline, challenging contracts and new stealth-focused tools that reward creative approaches to gameplay. It also adds new enemy types, gear and assassination techniques to master, plus side quests that reveal hidden secrets of the beautiful region.

FYI: the expansion is free for those who pre-ordered the base game and is also included with Ubisoft+ subscriptions!

Simulation fans can dive into the whimsical worlds of Two Point Campus and Two Point Museum, while stealth enthusiasts can explore the new expansion for Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
