Starhub, a major Singaporean telecommunications company, has launched 'GeForce NOW' -- a cloud gaming service that offers discounted rates to existing Starhub subscribers. The new service was built in partnership with NVIDIA, an AI and gaming technology company based in California.
'GeForce NOW' subscribers will be provided access to a massive library of over 1,000 games, including popular titles such as Fortnite, Apex Legends, League of Legends, Destiny 2, Dead by Daylight, and Dota 2. All of which will be offered at 1080P, 60FPS. In addition, as a full-fledged cloud gaming service, the wide variety of games offered on 'GeForce NOW' will be accessible across nearly all devices without large download files or the need for dedicated gaming rigs.
While 'GeForce NOW' may still not be a household name, it is proving to be a leading service in the space of cloud gaming, working with over 300 video game publishers including Ubisoft, Valve, Riot, and CD Projekt RED.
