NVIDIA brings GeForce NOW to Amazon Fire TV

Cloud gaming hits TVs, play PC titles with just a controller

NVIDIA has launched GeForce NOW on Amazon Fire TV Stick, letting users play PC games on their TVs without a console or gaming PC. The service streams games from NVIDIA’s cloud servers, so all processing happens remotely, while the gameplay is sent over the internet.

Supported Fire TV devices include Fire TV Stick 4K Plus (2nd Gen) and Fire TV Stick 4K Max (1st & 2nd Gen). Players need a compatible controller and a stable internet connection to enjoy smooth gameplay. The games stream at 1080p resolution and 60 frames per second, giving TV viewers clear and responsive performance.

Gamers can access titles from popular PC stores like Steam, Epic Games Store, and Battle.net. NVIDIA also added eight new games to the service, including Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Mega Man 11, and the Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection.

This launch brings cloud gaming into living rooms, letting people enjoy console-like experiences without extra hardware. Currently, Fire TV streaming is limited to 1080p and does not support HDR or 4K, but it offers an entry-level way to experience PC gaming on a TV.

By expanding to Fire TV, NVIDIA can compete with other cloud gaming platforms like Amazon Luna and Xbox Cloud Gaming, which also focus on TV streaming. The service is rolling out globally, but it is not yet available in India, with plans to expand regionally in the future.
