Overwatch 2 & Diablo 4 added to GeForce Now following Microsoft acquisition

Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4 are being added to GeForce Now following the closure of Activision Blizzard’s Microsoft acquisition. 

Over the past four years with Nvidia’s GeForce Now, their cloud-streaming service, they’ve been constantly making upgrades and expanding the library with new titles. 

And with Nvidia’s push to become the premier place for cloud gaming, they’ve been teaming up with Microsoft to get their games into the service, which includes titles from their recent acquisition of Activision Blizzard. 

And as part of that push, Blizzard’s flagship titles Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4 are now entering the world of cloud gaming as part of the company’s acquisition by Microsoft.

As announced by Nvidia, both games will now be part of Nvidia’s cloud gaming service. 

Diablo 4 in particular will allow GFN users with the Ultimate membership to play in 4K at 120 frames per second with additional DLSS support. 

However there’s a catch, GFN users can only play both games through the Steam version, with the Battle.net launcher version coming soon. No solid dates were announced. 

Other games coming in with Blizzard’s additions are both RAGE and RAGE 2 and an indie title named Bang-On Balls: Chronicles. 

This comes as several Call of Duty titles, in Modern Warfare 3, Modern Warfare 2, and Warzone, all got the GFN treatment back in December 2023, with further CoD titles being added in the future. 

The addition of Activision Blizzard titles is all part of Nvidia’s and Microsoft’s deal to bring Xbox Game Studios’ various titles from Bethesda, Mojang, and now AB to the GeForce Now Library over the next 10 years.
