Since its inception in 2020, NVIDIA GeForce NOW has been a very popular video game cloud streaming service for PC, Mac, and mobile devices.

Today, NVIDIA revealed that 20 titles will be joining the GeForce NOW library in March starting with four games releasing this week.
Games coming to GeForce NOW this week
NVIDIA is wasting no time and will release four games into GeForce NOW sometime this week. These new additions are:
Monster Hunter Rise
Players step into the role of monster hunters and find themselves in Kamura Village. Here, the people’s lives revolve around taking down enormous creatures and trying to keep “The Rampage” at bay, a foretold calamity involving hordes of monsters.
You’ll take on various missions in Monster Hunter: Rise to defeat the game’s many massive beasts. These missions can be done solo or you can play online with others. There are 14 different weapons and each takes time to master, but that means each player can bring their own unique fighting style to the hunt.
As you are victorious, you can loot and gather the necessary materials to improve your weapons and armor. Then you can head out again on another hunt to take down monsters that are even more powerful. Eventually, you’ll be strong enough to face Magnamalo, Monster Hunter Rise’s flagship monster.
Scars Above
This third-person action-adventure shooter takes place after a strange alien object appears in the skies over Earth. This orbiting structure was quickly dubbed the Metahedron and members of the Sentient Contact Assessment and Response (SCAR) team were sent to investigate it. Thus, the name Scars Above.
You’ll take on the role of Kate, a scientist from the SCAR team who wakes up on a strange sci-fi planet with no memory of how she got here or what happened to her crew. She quickly learns that the planet she’s found herself on is extremely hostile and she must fight and shoot her way to safety while trying to figure out who or what is behind everything.
Voltaire: The Vegan Vampire
This lighthearted title is actually an action roguelike mixed with a farming sim. As Dracula’s youngest son and black sheep of the vampire world, you’ve rebelliously determined to prove that you can forsake blood in favor of living off of plants in Voltaire: The Vegan Vampire. Daddy vampire isn’t happy about this, so you’ll tend your crops during the day and then defend them from his minions at night.
There are plenty of different plants to acquire as you explore around, so you can expand your farm. You’ll also uncover new abilities and grow stronger as you successfully defend your crops. If you get overpowered and give into your bloodlust, you can always start up your diet again and see how long you can last.
Rise of Industry
Although it might look like a city building sim at first glance, Rise of Industry is actually a mixture between a business sim and a strategy game. Your goal is to create effective and efficient production routes while growing your company. However, unexpected things might come your way and you’ll need to make the proper changes to overcome these challenges.
