Nvidia will limit monthly gaming time in the GeForce Now cloud service – you will have to pay for additional hours

Nvidia has announced that starting next year it will change its subscription policy for its cloud service GeForce Now, which allows you to run new games even on the weakest systems. Subscribers to the service will be provided with only 100 hours of gaming time per month. You will have to pay extra for additional playing time.

GeForce Now currently offers three plans. The free game session is only one hour long. The Performance level (formerly Priority) provides the ability to run games in 1440p resolution and extends the gaming session to six hours – Priority subscribers can upgrade to Performance for free. The maximum Ultimate subscription level provides access to the power of a GeForce RTX 4080-level video card, the ability to run games in 4K resolution at 120 fps or 1080p at 240 fps. The gaming session time is eight hours.

Starting next year, Nvidia will introduce a 100-hour gaming limit per month for new GeForce Now members. Active paid users or those who manage to sign up for a paid subscription before December 31, 2024, will be able to use the service without time restrictions until 2026 – to do this, they just need to renew the subscription until it ends. According to Nvidia, 100 gaming hours per month (or about 3 hours every day) is enough for 94% of service users. Those who exceed the monthly limit will have to pay $2.99 ​​(Performance) or $5.99 (Ultimate) for each additional 15 hours.

«Beginning early next year, GeForce Now will have a monthly limit of 100 game hours to ensure the service can continue to provide exceptional quality, speed, and lower latency for Performance and Ultimate members. The monthly limit of 100 gaming hours is quite comfortable for 94% of service users, according to available statistics. Subscribers can check how much time they spend on the cloud gaming service in their profiles (example in the image below). For paid users, up to 15 hours of unused time will automatically roll over into the next month of subscription,” Nvidia said in a statement.

Nvidia explains its decision by saying that this will help fix and stabilize prices for GeForce Now services. However, the limit of 100 hours of gaming time per month may seem too strict, especially for those who play more actively, especially on weekends.
