In order to get its proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard approved by regulatory authorities around the world, Microsoft has signed agreements with a number of companies over the last few weeks to bring its games to their platforms for the foreseeable future. With the acquisition having been blocked by the UK’s CMA, it remains to be seen whether it will actually end up going through, though of course, Microsoft will be honouring the aforementioned recently made agreements.
One such deal that the company agreed with was with Nvidia, with Microsoft pledging to bring its games to cloud platform GeForce Now for at least the next 10 years. That process has now begun, with Gears 5 being the first Microsoft-published title to become available on the streaming platform.
Meanwhile, more Xbox titles will soon be making their way to the streaming service as well, with Arkane Studios’ Deathloop and Obsidian Entertainment’s Pentiment and Grounded set to become available for GeForce Now next week, on May 25.
