NVIDIA has announced that its GeForce NOW cloud gaming service is deploying a new server with GeForce RTX 5080-class performance in Toronto, Canada[1]. Rolling out within days, it brings high-performance cloud gaming closer to members across the region. NVIDIA also announced a major update for the popular title NTE: Neverness to Everness, along with three new games joining the library this week.

A New RTX 5080-Class Server in Toronto

The centerpiece of this announcement is a new GeForce RTX 5080-class server in Toronto[1]. It expands service in the region and delivers dedicated cloud gaming performance from a location closer to local members. The server will roll out within days, giving more players across Canada access to top-tier cloud gaming.

The point of bringing servers physically closer to users is lower latency. In cloud gaming, the round-trip time between input and what appears on screen shapes the whole experience. The shorter that distance, the faster the response, which directly affects how comfortable competitive and action games feel.

What Ultimate Members Get

Ultimate members, on the top-tier plan, can play across a wide range of devices, including PCs, Macs, handhelds, mobile devices and TVs, using GeForce RTX 5080-class power in the cloud[1]. On supported ultrawide displays, they can enjoy resolutions of 4K and beyond at up to 120 frames per second, along with DLSS for sharper image reconstruction, ray tracing for richer lighting, and NVIDIA Reflex to reduce latency.

This performance boost is part of the move to GeForce NOW's Blackwell generation that NVIDIA has been rolling out through 2026. The shift to RTX 5080-class servers lets members experience the visual quality and frame rates that previously required an expensive high-end gaming PC, without upgrading the device in their hands[2]. The Toronto deployment follows this worldwide server expansion.

A Major Update for NTE: Neverness to Everness

In the cloud, NTE: Neverness to Everness is receiving the Version 1.2 "999 Nights" update[1]. It adds a tabletop-inspired fantasy RPG mode set on the Warren Continent as a new permanent game mode, complete with its own dedicated progression system.

The expansion broadens both story and gameplay: two new characters, Shinku and Iroi, make their debut, alongside 19 new outfits. A new vehicle, a motorcycle called Draco, also joins, letting players traverse the city at high speed while exploring. NVIDIA says it will soon bring native touch controls to NTE, making it easier to play from supported mobile devices.

New Games Added This Week

Three titles join the GeForce NOW library this week[1].

  • Esports Manager 2026 (new release on Steam, July 6)
  • Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced (new release on Steam and Ubisoft Connect, July 9)
  • Granblue Fantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok Demo (Steam)

Granblue Fantasy: Relink gains the Endless Ragnarok expansion, adding fresh story content, powerful new foes, summon abilities that expand combat strategy, co-op quest tiers, and a solo mode. Known for its dynamic combat, diverse roster and online co-op, the game gains new ways to play.

Summary

NVIDIA is adding an RTX 5080-class Toronto server to GeForce NOW, expanding high-performance cloud gaming in Canada. Ultimate members can enjoy 4K-and-beyond visuals at up to 120 frames per second across a wide range of devices, and the update also brings the major NTE: Neverness to Everness refresh and three new games. It is an announcement that once again highlights the strength of cloud gaming: delivering a high-performance gaming experience without requiring users to replace their hardware.
