Nvidia’s dedicated cloud-based gaming subscription service, dubbed GeForce Now, is a force to be reckoned with in the realm of cloud gaming, being one of the most established solutions in the business. Having launched in 2015, GeForce has now developed itself for users across the spectrum and is known today for its versatile catalog of games and minimal input lag.
Fortunately for Chromebooks—ChromeOS-powered lightweight devices that also revolve around the cloud—it has been possible to get a 3-month GeForce Now deal for free. It’s certainly a great way to get into the world of cloud gaming if you’ve meant to have a go at it for a while now.
Chromebooks come in various shapes, sizes, and forms in the day and age we live in today, even to the point where certain manufacturers are coming out with gaming-ready Chromebook, such as Acer‘s 516 GE. Given the cloud-centric nature of ChromeOS, cloud gaming is a real deal on this front, spanning services such as the now-defunct Stadia and GeForce Now.
How to claim GeForce Now for three months at no additional cost
First off, you should know that there’s an eligibility criterion for the promotion in question. Although Chromebooks are commonly subject to receiving perks from the developer occasionally, specific terms and conditions apply for things to proceed smoothly.
For starters, the requirement for the hardware is to have a Chromebook that was manufactured after 2017. This prerequisite is probably in place, so the performance of cloud streaming remains constant and up to the mark. Older hardware is seldom capable of hosting a quality gaming session online.
Moreover, there are also regional limitations that you have to consider. The promotional offering is only for the USA, among other select regions. You won’t be able to benefit from the occasion in unsupported regions. Lastly, acquiring GeForce Now in this manner is one of the many perks that Chromebook users are subject to.
Therefore, you must head to the Chromebook Perks section on the official Chromebook website while residing in a supported location. Once there, scroll down until you find the Nvidia GeForce Now area. Choose the correct type of subscription, whether you prefer one with higher specs or not, and click “Get perk” accordingly.
From there on out, you can seamlessly proceed by entering your billing credentials, and that’ll do the trick for you. Please be advised that this offer is for those already subscribed to Nvidia GeForce Now. The promotion aims to add more months to your subscription for free on ChromeOS.
However, if you haven’t subscribed already, feel free to purchase the subscription for a low monthly cost, and you’ll automatically receive the added perk on your Chromebook. It’s smooth sailing from there on out.
