Certain regions will see a price hike in subscription fees for GeForce Now.
Nvidia has said that in some areas GeForce Now members will be paying between 10% and 40% more for their monthly subscriptions to the service.
It wasn’t exactly an announcement; instead, it can be described as an update made to their FAQ section on the GeForce Now website.
What exactly is Nvidia GeForce Now you ask? Well, it’s essentially a cloud gaming service.Nvidia GeForce Now is a cloud gaming service that allows you to play remote server-hosted games over the internet on compatible devices, akin to Xbox Game Pass or PlayStation Plus Premium.
Nvidia has now decided to up their membership fees for the service. So why are prices going up and how bad is it going to be? Nvidia has said it’s “to accommodate higher operational expenses in specific regions,” and is referring to Canada, United Kingdom, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Czech Republic, Poland, and countries whose national currency is the Euro.
In Poland, users will experience the least significant price hike. For the majority of the one and six-month Priority and Ultimate package subscriptions, fees will increase by 10%, except for the six-month Ultimate package, which will see an 8% increment.
In Canada, the 1-month Ultimate subscription sees a 30% increase, whereas for other options, there is a more substantial 40% price hike.
Across different regions, like Germany, there are varying adjustments: Germany increases by 10%, the UK by 11%, Denmark by 13%, and Sweden by 30%.
The good news is that regions outside of Canada and Europe, including the United States and Africa, will not see price increases. Early Founders members will continue to benefit from “Founders for Life” pricing, protecting them from Nvidia’s recent price adjustments.
These price increases will take effect starting on November 1st, likely causing dissatisfaction among many of the service’s subscribers.
