Geforce Now is available as a download for Android
GeForce Now is available for download on Android devices. Nvidia’s cloud gaming service is now reportedly available in South Korea, but several people outside of South Korea have managed to install an apk and try out the service.
The service will be available via the Play Store, but XDA Developers reports that this is reportedly only the case in South Korea for the time being. The website has gotten the service working and tested it on the Galaxy Note 10+ and the Galaxy Fold, among other things, via an apk on the APK Mirror website. According to XDA Developers, Geforce Now’s Android client is quite easy to use. The website has played Doom through Geforce Now, among other things, and says it works quite well apart from an infrequent, short-term packet loss.
Nvidia announced in August that Geforce Now would appear on Android devices this year, in the form of an Android mobile app. The streaming service has been available in beta on PC, Mac and Shield TV for several years now. Players who also want to try the beta on Android will need a previously activated account via PC, Mac and Shield TV. Users must have an Android phone with at least 2GB of RAM and Android 5.0 or higher.
GeForce Now is in fact a link with digital game stores, allowing players to take their game library from, for example, Steam with them and play their games on the PC, Mac, the Shield and now also on Android. It is not necessary to have powerful hardware; the games are streamed and run on Nvidia GPUs.
