Avowed Leads the way this GeForce NOW Thursday

Obsidian Entertainment’s Avowed, which launched in early access last week on Feb 18, 2025, across Steam, Battle.net, Xbox, and PC Game Pass, is now fully available on GeForce NOW as part of the platform’s fifth-anniversary celebration. This first-person fantasy RPG streams to cloud gamers, bringing Eora’s magic and steel to NVIDIA’s cloud rigs. We’re diving into the news, sharing our take, and rounding up the week’s other cloud additions—because who doesn’t want to explore the Living Lands without a local powerhouse?

Avowed on GeForce NOW: A Cloud RPG Triumph

Avowed invites players to step into the captivating world of Eora as an envoy of Aedyr, exploring the mysterious Living Lands. This island, teeming with ancient magic and shifting secrets, faces a dire threat: a mysterious plague that defies nature and reason, spreading chaos across its sprawling wilderness. The Living Lands offer diverse environments, each with a unique ecosystem, ripe for discovery.

Engage in visceral combat by mixing and matching swords, spells, guns, and shields, with companions of various species joining your adventure. Their abilities, quests, and fates intertwine with your choices, shaping the story’s outcome. Every decision ripples across the Living Lands, testing your resolve amid intrigue, power, and danger. GeForce NOW members can dive into this immersive fantasy with RTX-powered gaming rigs in the cloud. Ultimate members stream at up to 4K resolution and 60 FPS with high dynamic range, enhanced by NVIDIA DLSS 3 for better frame rates and NVIDIA Reflex for ultra-low latency, delivering a seamless, visually stunning journey.

GeForce NOW’s Day Passes: A Limited Cloud Perk

Separately, GeForce NOW is reintroducing day passes in limited quantities, giving members a chance to experience the platform’s power without a full membership. These passes offer 24-hour access to either Ultimate or Performance benefits, based on available capacity. It’s a handy option for testing the waters or jumping in for a quick session, but availability is tight—so act fast if you want in. Check NVIDIA’s blog for updates on membership options and pass availability.

Our Reaction: A Cloud Win with a Side Note

We’re genuinely excited Avowed is now fully streaming on GeForce NOW—its deep RPG mechanics, rich storytelling, and dynamic combat are ideal for cloud gamers. Exploring Eora’s dragons and intrigue with RTX polish? That’s a solid move. The day passes, while separate news, add a nice touch for casual cloud gamers, though their limited nature feels like a tease. Still, Avowed’s full cloud debut is the real star, and we’re eager to see how it plays in the cloud.
