NVIDIA's cloud gaming service GeForce NOW has launched a summer sale that takes about 35% off its annual (12-month) plans. The timing lines up with the Steam Summer Sale, which began the same day on June 25, so the discounts on games and on the way you play them overlap. On top of that, six new titles joined the library this week. For people who game in the cloud, it is a convenient moment to get everything set up at once.
Annual Plans 35% Off, Top Tier Drops by 70 USD
The sale applies to the 12-month plans. The higher Ultimate tier, normally 199.99 USD (about 32,000 yen), drops by 70 USD (about 11,000 yen) to 129.99 USD (about 21,000 yen)[1][2]. The Performance tier one step below goes from a regular 99.99 USD (about 16,000 yen) to 64.99 USD (about 10,500 yen) after a 35 USD (about 5,700 yen) discount[2]. Both work out to roughly 35% off, and the offer is said to run through July 8[2].
※1 USD = 162 JPY (as of June 25, 2026)
One thing to note is that the discount applies only to the 12-month plans. The 1-month plan and the Day Pass stay at full price, and the discounted rate lasts only for the first year, reverting to the regular price at renewal[2]. Eligible users include new members, free members, and those switching from a monthly plan to an annual one; people who already hold a 12-month Ultimate plan are not covered by this sale[2].
Note that the prices cited here are for the plans NVIDIA offers directly in overseas markets. Because the way GeForce NOW is offered in Japan has changed several times over the years, anyone using it domestically should separately confirm the plan and pricing available to them.
Synergy with the Steam Summer Sale
The aim of the sale is to pair with the Steam Summer Sale, which started the same June 25. The Steam Summer Sale runs through July 9 and discounts thousands of PC games[1][3]. It is one of the year's best opportunities to grow a game library.
Where GeForce NOW comes in is that it lets you play the games you buy without being tied to the performance of the hardware in your hands. Supported titles are streamed from GeForce RTX servers in the cloud, so you can play them on devices you already own, such as PCs, Macs, handheld game consoles, smartphones, and TVs[1]. Because downloads and installs are handled on the cloud side, you can keep adding games without eating into your device's storage[1].
The higher Ultimate plan gives you GeForce RTX 4080/5080-class performance in the cloud, supporting up to 4K resolution and up to 120 fps, along with technologies such as NVIDIA DLSS, ray tracing, and NVIDIA Reflex, which improves responsiveness[1]. Being able to run demanding titles at high image quality without preparing an expensive gaming PC is a strength unique to the cloud.
Six New Games Join the Library This Week, Including a Devolver Title
To go with the sale, six new titles joined the GeForce NOW library this week[1]. The headliner is Dark Scrolls, a fast-paced action roguelite from Devolver Digital. With builds that keep shifting and combat that has some bite, it joins the lineup of Devolver titles already on the service, such as Cult of the Lamb and Hotline Miami[1].
Another title to watch is Square Enix's The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales. It is a narrative-driven adventure game set in a hand-crafted world to explore, told from the perspective of Elliot, a traveler pulled across eras[1].
The other main titles joining or supported on the library this week are as follows[1].
- Dark Scrolls (new release on Steam, June 22)
- SAND: Raiders of Sophie (new release on Steam, June 22)
- Deer & Boy (new release on Steam, June 23)
- EMPULSE (new release on Steam, June 24)
- The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales (Steam)
- FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves (Steam)
All of them can be streamed to supported devices right away, with no downloads or setup required[1].
Summary
The GeForce NOW summer sale takes the 12-month Ultimate down to 129.99 USD (about 21,000 yen) and Performance to 64.99 USD (about 10,500 yen), for roughly 35% off. It overlaps with the Steam Summer Sale running through July 9, and the strength of the cloud is that you can keep buying games without worrying about storage or hardware performance. This week also brought six new titles, including Dark Scrolls. Since the discount is limited to the 12-month plans and applies only to the first year, it is worth weighing whether it fits how you actually play before signing up.
