GeForce NOW Launches CONTROL Resonant This Week and Previews Googlebooks Cloud Gaming Support

CONTROL Resonant arrives on GeForce NOW at launch, streamable by Ultimate members at GeForce RTX 5080-class cloud performance with NVIDIA DLSS 4, ray tracing, NVIDIA Reflex and Cinematic Quality Streaming, up to 5K high dynamic range on supported devices. This is a same-day cloud launch for the new CONTROL title, letting players skip roughly a 100GB local install and expensive PC upgrades. Based on the official announcement's description of game content, technical features and streaming specifications; it is product launch information rather than experimental or benchmark data.

GeForce NOW support is coming soon to Googlebooks, Google's new laptop category described as the first designed for Gemini Intelligence, with a Titan C chip and multigrade protection, and the ability to move from phone to laptop and access phone files and apps directly on the laptop. It brings the cloud gaming library to this new laptop category, making it possible to stream the latest PC games without local installs. Based on forward-looking statements in the announcement, with availability details pointed to official social channels later this year.

DragonSword: Awakening leads nine new games joining the cloud this week; developed by Hound13 and set on the anime-style continent of Orbis, it lets players build a team from 19 heroes, stack Status Ailments with Active Skills and chain Signal Skills into tag-team combos, playable across supported devices including Steam Decks, Firefox browsers and Amazon Fire TV devices. It expands this week's cloud lineup with an anime-style open-world title and covers multiple device forms. Based on the announcement's description of gameplay and supported devices, plus the list of games added this week.

The CONTROL Resonant Ultimate Membership Bundle enters its final days: purchasing a 12-month GeForce NOW Ultimate membership through Sunday, Sept. 27 includes CONTROL Resonant at no additional cost, and newcomers can start with a day pass whose cost can be applied toward a first monthly membership. Bundling and day-pass credit lower the barrier for new users to try premium cloud gaming. Based on the announcement's explicit promotion dates and membership benefit terms.

This article is for readers tracking cloud gaming content and device ecosystems, covering the games added to GeForce NOW this week, the CONTROL Resonant launch and membership bundle, and a preview of Googlebooks support.
