Old PhysX Games on RTX 50 GPUs & GeForce Now, With First Activision Titles via Ubisoft+ Premium
The first Activision titles are now available on Nvidia GeForce Now via Ubisoft+ Premium. Battle.net single sign-on is also now live. The new GeForce Game Ready driver provides GPU acceleration for select classic and 32-bit GPU-accelerated PhysX games on GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs.
Nvidia has announced improvements to GeForce Now and revealed which additional games will be available on the cloud gaming service in December. GeForce Now has added its first Activision titles via Ubisoft+ Premium, including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy and the Spyro Reignited Trilogy, with more to come. GeForce Now is the first cloud gaming platform to offer these Activision releases as part of Ubisoft+ Premium. However, the games are also available on GeForce via other distribution platforms, not just Ubisoft+ Premium.
In addition, the Battle.net single sign-on feature is now live, making it easier for GFN members to access games from Blizzard Entertainment, Activision and others. Members can link their Battle.net accounts directly to GeForce Now to enjoy automatic single sign-on across all supported devices.
These ten new titles are being added to the cloud library this week: Marvel Cosmic Invasion (Steam, Xbox), Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (Ubisoft), Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III (Ubisoft), Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy (Ubisoft), XOCIETY (Epic Games Store), Spyro Reignited Trilogy (Ubisoft, December 2), Lost Records: Bloom & Rage (Xbox), Octopath Traveler 0 (Steam), Routine (Steam, Xbox), and Mmesis (Steam). GeForce RTX 5080-enabled games are Enshrouded (Steam) and Fallout 76 (Steam, Xbox).
Here is the complete list of games coming to the cloud in December: Dome Keeper (Xbox), Death Howl (Steam and Xbox), Everdream Village (Steam), ARC Raiders (Epic Games Store), Dying Light: The Beast (Epic Games Store), Citizen Sleeper (Steam), For the King II (Steam), Jurassic World Evolution 3 (Epic Games Store), Hogwarts Legacy (Steam and Epic Games Store), LEGO Harry Potter Collection (Steam), Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris (Xbox), Pigeon Simulator (Xbox), Pacific Drive (Xbox), Powerwash Simulator 2 (Steam), Shape of Dreams (Steam), Storage Hunter Simulator (Steam), Sword of the Sea (Steam), Underground Garage (Steam), Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 (Epic Games Store), and Witchfire (Epic Games Store).
Nvidia has released a new GeForce Game Ready driver to further optimise the Battlefield 6 experience, prepare the system for the Winter Offensive update on 9 December, and improve the accuracy of DLSS Ray Reconstruction in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7.
But the most significant improvement relates to older games running on the latest generation of GPUs. The GeForce RTX 50 Series of GPUs was launched at the beginning of the year, at which point 32-bit support for CUDA was phased out. This meant that the PhysX effects in several older games were not accelerated by the new GPUs. Nvidia: "We heard the feedback from the community, and with the launch of our new driver today, we are adding custom support for GeForce gamers’ most played PhysX-accelerated games, enabling full performance on GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs, in line with our existing PhysX support on prior-generation GPUs."
Installing the new GeForce Game Ready Driver enables users to enjoy the full GPU-accelerated PhysX experience in: Alice: Madness Returns, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, Batman: Arkham City, Batman: Arkham Origins, Borderlands 2, Mafia II, Metro 2033, Metro: Last Light, and Mirror's Edge. Support for Batman: Arkham Asylum is planned for the first half of 2026.
