NVIDIA announced during CES 2025 this week that they have expanded their GeForce NOW cloud gaming system to include Steam Deck.

GeForce NOW Cloud Gaming on Steam Deck

Steam Deck gamers can gain access to all the same benefits as GeForce RTX 4080 GPU owners with a GeForce NOW Ultimate membership, including NVIDIA DLSS 3 technology for the highest frame rates and NVIDIA Reflex for ultra-low latency. Because GeForce NOW streams from an RTX gaming rig in the cloud, the Steam Deck uses less processing power, which extends battery life compared with playing locally. The streaming experience with GeForce NOW looks stunning, whichever way Steam Deck users want to play — whether that's in handheld mode for HDR-quality graphics, connected to a monitor for up to 1440p 120 fps HDR or hooked up to a TV for big-screen streaming at up to 4K 60 HDR.

GeForce NOW members can take advantage of RTX ON with the Steam Deck for photorealistic gameplay on supported titles, as well as HDR10 and SDR10 when connected to a compatible display for richer, more accurate color gradients. Get ready for major upgrades to streaming on the go when the GeForce NOW app launches on the Steam Deck later this year.
