Nvidia today rolled out another one of its weekly updates to the GeForce NOW cloud gaming platform. Alongside support for new games, the company today launched a new feature for the service, that being official support for flight controls.
The company first mentioned its intention to bring support for flight sticks and throttle systems back at CES, right alongside its native Linux and Amazon Fire TV app announcements. This is being called one of the most requested features for the cloud gaming service by users.
"Members can now jump into their favorite flight and space simulation games with a full stick-and-throttle setup streamed right from the cloud," said Nvidia. "It’s all about dialing in that authentic, hands-on flying experience while keeping latency low and gameplay responsive on GeForce NOW."
Currently supported devices are Thrustmaster's T.Flight Hotas One, Hotas 4, and Rudder Pedals, as well as Logitech's X52 Hotas and Pro Hotas. More flight control devices are slated to gain support later. Find the official page with information on the currently supported devices list and operating systems over here.
Nvidia also revealed more games that have received GeForce NOW support this week:
- MIO: Memories in Orbit (New release on Steam and Xbox, available on Game Pass, Jan. 20)
- Bladesong (New release on Steam, Jan. 22)
- Rustler (New release on Epic Games Store, free starting Jan. 22)
- The Gold River Project (New release on Steam, Jan. 23, GeForce RTX 5080-ready)
As always, keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month.
