The launch of NVIDIA’s GeForce NOW cloud gaming service in India is just around the corner, slated for sometime in 2025. While we wait for the official launch date, there are a few things you can do to prepare and ensure a smooth gaming experience from day one. Here’s a guide on how to get ready for GeForce NOW in India:
Check Your Internet Connection
A stable and fast internet connection is crucial for cloud gaming. While official recommendations for India are yet to be announced, GeForce NOW typically requires at least 15 Mbps for 720p gaming and 25 Mbps for 1080p. Higher resolutions and frame rates will demand even more bandwidth.
- Run Speed Tests: Use online speed tests like Fast.com or Speedtest.net to check your download and upload speeds, as well as your ping (latency).
- Consider an Ethernet Connection: If possible, connect your device directly to your router with an Ethernet cable for the most stable connection.
- Optimize Your Wi-Fi: If you’re using Wi-Fi, make sure your router is in a central location and free from obstructions. Consider using the 5 GHz band if your router and devices support it.
Create an NVIDIA Account
You’ll need an NVIDIA account to access GeForce NOW. If you don’t already have one, head over to the NVIDIA website and create a free account. This will save you time during the sign-up process when the service launches.
Explore the Games Library
While the official list of games for GeForce NOW India hasn’t been revealed, you can get an idea of what to expect by browsing the GeForce NOW global library. This will give you a sense of the types of games that are typically supported on the platform. Start thinking about which games you’d like to play first!
Check Device Compatibility
GeForce NOW works on a wide range of devices, including Windows PCs, Macs, Android devices, Chromebooks, and even some smart TVs. While official details for India are pending, you can check the general system requirements on the NVIDIA website to see if your current devices are likely to be compatible.
