Get Resident Evil Requiem for Free with a 12 Month GeForce NOW Ultimate Subscription

NVIDIA is using its GeForce NOW cloud platform to remove the biggest barrier between players and CAPCOM’s upcoming Resident Evil Requiem: hardware. If you do not have a PC that can comfortably run a modern, ray traced survival horror heavyweight, NVIDIA is offering a clean on ramp through a new bundle that includes the game when you purchase a 12 month GeForce NOW Ultimate membership. The value proposition is straightforward. A 12 month Ultimate subscription costs 199.99$. The game itself is priced at 70$. If Resident Evil Requiem was already on your must play list, the bundle effectively offsets the game cost inside the subscription buy.

The real story here is feature parity. GeForce NOW Ultimate is positioned to deliver nearly the full premium experience associated with GeForce RTX 50 Series class performance, including NVIDIA DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, Ray Reconstruction, and path tracing. NVIDIA notes that one feature is currently not supported in the cloud environment: the DLSS 4.5 second generation transformer model that debuted on local GPUs earlier this year. For players, this means you still get the flagship performance stack, but not the newest DLSS model revision on the cloud side right now.

For anyone comparing tiers, here is what the GeForce NOW Ultimate membership offers versus the Free and Performance plans.

    • 8 hour gaming sessions

    • Up to 5K resolution

    • Up to 240 FPS, or 360 FPS on RTX 5080 servers

    • First priority access to the queue

    • 16 vCPU cores and 56 GB DRAM

    • Surround 7.1 audio

    • DLSS Frame Generation

    • NVIDIA Reflex

    • Cloud G Sync

    • GeForce RTX 5080 class performance

    • DLSS Frame Generation with Multi Frame Generation on RTX 5080 servers

The bundle lands at a smart time because cloud subscriptions win when they pair a premium tier with a premium game that actually benefits from the extra horsepower. A survival horror release with cutting edge lighting and heavy image reconstruction is exactly the kind of title where better latency discipline, higher frame rate ceilings, and higher resolution targets are not just marketing bullet points, they are quality of life upgrades that make the experience smoother and more responsive.

Alongside the Resident Evil Requiem bundle, NVIDIA also highlighted new games joining GeForce NOW this week, spanning Steam, Ubisoft Connect, Xbox, and Microsoft Store availability.

  • TCG Card Shop Simulator (New release on Xbox, available on Game Pass Feb. 24)

  • Blizzard Arcade Collection (New release on Ubisoft Connect, Feb. 25)

  • Diablo II: Resurrected (New release on Ubisoft Connect, Feb 25)

  • Spellcasters Chronicles (New release on Steam, Feb. 26, GeForce RTX 5080-ready)

  • Anno: Mutationem (Xbox, available on Game Pass)

  • Arc Raiders (Xbox, available on the Microsoft Store, GeForce RTX 5080-ready)

  • DEVOUR (Steam)

  • Galactic Civilizations 3 (Xbox, available on the Microsoft Store)

  • MotoGP22 (Xbox, available on the Microsoft Store)

  • Torque Drift 2 (Steam)


If you were choosing today, would you rather spend 199.99$ on 12 months of GeForce NOW Ultimate plus a bundled new release, or put that budget toward upgrading a local GPU, and why?
