NVIDIA has announced significant changes to its cloud gaming service, GeForce Now. Starting in 2025, the company plans to limit the amount of time gamers can spend on individual games each month.

Each player will be allotted 100 hours per month. According to NVIDIA, 94% of gamers do not exceed these limits, so the changes should not significantly impact the majority of users. The restriction is being implemented to prevent subscription price hikes while maintaining high service quality.

Additionally, any unused time will automatically roll over to the following month, up to a maximum of 15 hours. Extra time can be purchased separately at a rate of $3 for 15 hours for the Performance subscription and $6 for 15 hours for the Ultimate subscription.

NVIDIA also announced that users who subscribe before the end of this year will not face any restrictions in 2025. For them, the limits will take effect starting in January 2026.

Other important details:

  • Performance subscribers ($10) can now play at 1440p resolution (previously up to 1080p). This tier also includes ultrawide format support.
  • Ultimate subscribers ($20) can play in 4K/120 FPS and 1080p/240 FPS modes. The connection is made to gaming systems based on GeForce RTX 4080.
  • This week, GeForce Now added Planet Coaster 2, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate, Empire of the Ants, Unrailed 2: Back on Track, TCG Card Shop Simulator, StarCraft 2, and StarCraft Remastered. The entire library now boasts over 2,000 games.

Previously, NVIDIA reported a major security vulnerability in its graphics drivers and recommended that all users update.
