Following Activision’s example, Bethesda has requested the removal of most of its games from GeForce Now. Thus, the only Bethesda game that will be available, at least for now, on GeForce Now is Wolfenstein: Youngblood.
As NVIDIA’s Cory Banks wrote on the official forums:
“Please be advised most Bethesda Softworks titles will be removed from the GeForce NOW service today. Wolfenstein Youngblood will remain for all members.”
Naturally, premium members will be able to enjoy Wolfenstein Youngblood with its ray tracing effects, even if they don’t own an RTX GPU.
NVIDIA did not clarify whether Bethesda’s games will return on its gaming cloud service in the future. My guess is that Doom Eternal will also not be available on GeForce Now when it comes out next month.
In conclusion, there are currently two big publishers that have removed their games from GeForce Now. As such, it will be interesting to see whether other publishers, like Square Enix and Warner Bros, will also remove their games.
Stay tuned for more!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

Isnt geforce now just streaming games you already own, like you stream a machine on the cloud? How can publishers force the removal of the games?
Also are activision and bethesda plan to stream their games or something?
No. It’s the same concept as google stadia but works better
I think it’s because Google may be the new Epic Sh*t and force exclusivety to Stadia by dangling a big pile of money in front of the publishers. I hope I’m wrong though.
Yes, in their marketing material you can stream the games you own from EGS and Steam. I am not sure if they actually have their own streaming store also like Google Stadia, because I never tried the service since I already have a gaming desktop / laptop.
The service checks games ownership to allow you to play them (it’s downloaded and updated on Nvidia’s end). You can only play games you own AND are available on GeForce Now’s servers.
haahaahaahahaahahahahahahahaha
Quote “there are currently two big publishers that have removed their games from GeForce Now”
Let me add to that quote, two terrible and greedy publishers
Yeah, Nvidia is not terrible (4GB=3.5+.5) and greedy (RetardTaX).
Let’s not forget the deceptive GT 1030 DDR4, the worst GPU in existence.
Let me know when Nvidia removes GeForce Now, from GeForce Now. Until then, I really couldn’t care less about this worthless garbage.
As long as i can play Skyrim on my phone and bad laptop, its all good. (cuz i can now, its not removed)
LOL Big Companies giving the middle finger to NVIDIA, nice the pos deserve it.
Now the same game companies will proceed to create their own Service which is gonna be complete garbage, so everyone else can lol at them, NVIDIA included.
Imagine playing Bethesda’s broken as hell games without the possibility to fix them through community patches and mods.
Which they go out of their way to break due to paid mods.
sounds hot
Every once in a while you’re not a goat.
lmao
“Wolfenstein Youngblood will remain for all members”
That figures because you’d need to be a complete and utter ‘member’ to enjoy that game!
Another reason why subscriptions should be avoided. Games get removed all the time.
Streaming is for p?rn, not games.
blizzard is much worse than bethesda..
Does Blizzard offer DLCs through microtransactions only? Bethesda does.
This is all rather pathetic and a complete cluster F..k of people not doing their jobs.
what a sheeeet
