We’re still enjoying the benefits of Nvidia’s sixth anniversary celebrations for GeForce Now. The popular cloud gaming service provides access to thousands of games on a wide range of devices, and this week, eleven more games are being added to the platform. This includes Resident Evil Requiem, the latest entry to the storied Capcom franchise. Better yet, Requiem is part of a new launch offer for GFN subscribers.

To quote Nvidia directly: “For a limited time, Resident Evil: Requiem is included with the purchase of a 12‑month Ultimate membership”. The game is also compatible with Nvidia’s top RTX 5080-class servers available to Ultimate subscribers, which will certainly come in handy when you realize Requiem is supported by DLSS 4 and stunning path tracing visuals (more details here).

Resident Evil Requiem included with GeForce Now Ultimate (12 months)

The RTX 5080-class servers unlock potential for up to 5K 120FPS, and even up to 360 FPS support. DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation is fully accessible, too, so you can enjoy super smooth visuals on any device. Linux recently got a native GeForce Now app in beta, while Steam Deck users got a native app last year – though the latter remains limited to 90 FPS. Regardless, back when we tested it, we called it “a game-changer for AAA gaming,” and it should be no different with Resident Evil Requiem.
