The season of giving continues — GeForce NOW members can access a new free reward: a special in-game Star Wars Outlaws enhancement.
It’s all part of an exciting GFN Thursday, topped with five new games joining the more than 2,000 titles supported in the GeForce NOW library, including the launch of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl and Xbox Gaming Studios fan favorites Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.
And make sure not to pass this opportunity up — gamers who want to take the Performance and Ultimate memberships for a spin can do so with 25% off Day Passes, now through Friday, Nov. 22. Day Passes give access to 24 continuous hours of powerful cloud gaming.
A New Saga Begins
The galaxy’s most electrifying escapade gets even more exciting with the new Wild Card story pack for Star Wars Outlaws.
This thrilling story pack invites scoundrels to join forces with the galaxy’s smoothest operator, Lando Calrissian, for a high-stakes Sabacc tournament that’ll keep players on the edge of their seats. As Kay Vess, gamers bluff, charm and blast their way through new challenges, exploring uncharted corners of the Star Wars galaxy. Meanwhile, a free update will scatter fresh Contract missions across the stars, offering members ample opportunities to build their reputations and line their pockets with credits.
To kick off this thrilling underworld adventure, GeForce NOW members are in for a special reward with the Forest Commando Character Pack.
The pack gives Kay and Nix, her loyal companion, a complete set of gear that’s perfect for missions in lush forest worlds. Get equipped with tactical trousers, a Bantha leather belt loaded with attachments, a covert poncho to shield against jungle rain and a hood for Nix that’s great for concealment in thick forests.
Members of the GeForce NOW rewards program can check their email for instructions on how to claim the reward. Ultimate and Performance members can start redeeming style packages today. Don’t miss out — this offer is available through Saturday, Dec. 21, on a first-come, first-served basis.
Welcome to the Zone
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, the highly anticipated sequel in the cult-classic S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, is a first-person-shooter survival-horror game set in the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone.
In the game — which blends postapocalyptic fiction with Ukrainian folklore and the eerie reality of the Chornobyl disaster — players can explore a vast open world filled with mutated creatures, anomalies and other stalkers while uncovering the zone’s secrets and battling for survival.
The title features advanced graphics and physics powered by Unreal Engine 5 for stunningly realistic and detailed environments. Players’ choices impact the game world and narrative, which comprises a nonlinear storyline with multiple possible endings.
Players will take on challenging survival mechanics to test their skills and decision-making abilities. Members can make their own epic story with a Performance membership for enhanced GeForce RTX-powered streaming at 1440p or an Ultimate membership for up to 4K 120 frames per second streaming, offering the crispest visuals and smoothest gameplay.

Members can emerge from Vault 101 into the irradiated ruins of Washington, D.C., in Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition, which includes all five downloadable content packs released for Fallout 3. Experience the game that redefined the postapocalyptic genre with its morally ambiguous choices, memorable characters and the innovative V.A.T.S. combat system. Whether revisiting the Capital Wasteland, exploring the Mojave Desert or delving into the realm of Cyrodiil, these iconic titles have never looked or played better thanks to the power of GeForce NOW’s cloud streaming technology.
