Nvidia GeForce NOW confirmed to launch in India in November
The company will directly operate the cloud gaming service on its own data centre, providing a more stable and polished experience for Indian players.
Cloud gaming is often framed as “the future of gaming,” but for many Indian players, it’s always felt out of reach. However, that's about to change, as Nvidia confirmed that its GeForce NOW cloud gaming service will launch in the country this November.
The news comes directly from the company's blog post tied to its recent Gamescom updates, marking India as the next big market after Thailand and part of Nvidia’s wider global rollout. The exact launch date and pricing details are still under wraps, but the announcement alone is a big deal.
For anyone unfamiliar, GeForce NOW allows you to stream games directly from Nvidia’s servers, letting players jump into demanding titles on modest hardware. However, unlike most regions where Nvidia partners with local companies, in India, the company appears set to operate its own data centre.

That setup is currently only seen in North America and Western Europe, which could mean a more stable and polished experience for Indian players. Nvidia also confirmed that GeForce NOW is getting RTX 5080 support through its new Blackwell SuperPOD servers, allowing game streaming at up to 5K resolution and 120 frames per second.
Whether that upgrade will be available in India at launch remains unclear, but it signals just how ambitious Nvidia’s cloud push has become. Nevertheless, big titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, The Outer Worlds 2, Borderlands 4, Arc Raiders, Hell of Us, and Dying Light: The Beast will be available on GeForce NOW right at launch.
Paid members will also get access to the new “Install to Play” feature, which lets them install games directly in the cloud. That essentially turns GeForce NOW into a virtual PC and expands its supported library to around 4,500 titles.
For India, the timing is especially important. Services like Xbox Cloud Gaming still aren’t officially available in the country, leaving a major gap in the market. GeForce NOW’s arrival could not only give Indian players a legitimate cloud gaming option but also push competitors to finally bring their platforms into the region.
