News & Reviews:   Nvidia GeForce NOW

It has been a year since Yes 5G introduced NVIDIA GeForce NOW package plans. Today, the company announced two new passes - 1-day and 3-day plans as well as experience zones at select Yes Experience Stores across Malaysia.

Yes 5G initially announced that their access to the NVIDIA GeForce NOW cloud gaming service was on exclusive BETA for Yes customers. We already checked it out with our first impressions article and video but that BETA period is coming to a close this 13 April 2023. However, they’ve also announced that it will now be priced at RM40 per month after the BETA.

As per the recent announcement, Yes 5G is offering cloud gaming via NVIDIA’s GeForce NOW platform. Available exclusively to Yes 5G customers on Beta, we managed to try it out and while it certainly sounds promising, considering the state of our 5G networks we have to admit that we were somewhat hesitant. Read on to find out our first impressions of the NVIDIA GeForce NOW cloud gaming platform powered by Yes 5G and see if it’s the cloud gaming streaming platform for you.

Although streaming games still hasn't really taken off due to the potential lag and such, it hasn't stopped people from trying it out. In fact, for something as new and unreliable as games streaming, it's impressive to see Nvidia GeForce NOW getting more than 1 million gamers signing up to the platform.

Clearly cloud based gaming is the future. Earlier today, Nvidia announced that their streaming service, the Nvidia GeForce NOW will be making its way to Android powered mobile devices. For those not in the know, the Nvidia GeForce NOW streaming service is a way for gamers to stream games from their game libraries on their mobile devices.
