NVIDIA has recently released GeForce NOW 2.0.27 which includes a variety of improvements and bug-fixes. NVIDIA has added beta support for the Google Chrome browser on Windows and macOS which will make it easier to start playing. GeForce NOW Users can simply go to https://play.geforcenow.com/ to start playing, along with Google Chrome support NVIDIA has made it easier to save and share games simply by copying the URL. NVIDIA also updated GeForce NOW macOS to include native support for Apple M1 devices which will enable the best experience on these devices. You can read the full release notes for GeForce NOW 2.0.27 below.





Features

  • In 2.0.27 we are adding beta support for the Google Chrome browser, which will enable millions more prospective new PC gamers to easily play the latest games on Windows and macOS. (ChromeOS is already supported.) Other platforms may work, but are unsupported.
  • We have also added an easy way for you to create bookmarks and shortcuts to help you launch your favorite games faster. Simply click on a game to open the game details options, and select +SHORTCUT to open a dialog to create a game shortcut on your desktop.
  • On Chrome Browsers, we added a way for you to share a URL for any game on GeForce NOW with your friends.
  • On iOS and iPadOS you can also share a game with the built-in Share option to any app that is integrated into iOS/iPadOS Share, including iMessage, Whatsapp, and more.

Bug Fixes

  • If you changed your keyboard to non-English, you can now input alphabetical keys during streaming.
  • The correct filters will now be applied when you switch from Ansel to FreeStyle.
  • You will no longer see an infinite spinner in the feedback dialog box if you lose your network connection.
  • The setting page will no longer freeze after pressing the Snap button when using Ansel.
  • Fixed a problem where some games that were available on multiple game stores saw the same store repeated when using search or on the game details.
  • GeForce NOW will auto update properly after clicking Relaunch Now on macOS Big Sur.
  • Your prefered game store will now be properly selected when you launch a game for the second time.

So, if something low end, like a Chromebook or maybe even an SOC, supported Chrome, it could possibly run Geforce Now?
