Nvidia Adds Firefox Support to GeForce NOW for Windows Gaming

Cloud gaming service GeForce NOW has added support for the Firefox web browser on Windows, allowing users to stream more than 2,000 PC titles directly from their browser without installing heavy software or upgrading local hardware. The service uses Nvidia’s RTX-powered cloud servers to run on Firefox for Windows, though support is currently limited to that specific operating system and browser version.

High-Performance Streaming on Firefox

GeForce NOW Ultimate members can take advantage of the new browser support to stream games at up to 1440p resolution and 120 frames per second. The service streams PC games directly to the screen, removing the need for lengthy downloads, updates, or installs. Users simply need a Windows PC and the latest version of Firefox to get started.

“Firefox earned its place on our list of supported browsers by delivering the first-class experience GeForce NOW players expect,” said Andrew Fear, Director of NVIDIA GeForce NOW. “We set a high bar for browser support, and we’re excited to welcome Firefox, giving millions of Firefox fans a new way to stream the games they love.”

Mozilla points to the browser’s customization and multitasking features as key benefits for gamers. Users can set themes, adjust colors, change tab settings, or run Discord in Split View while keeping a gaming guide open in another tab. This setup allows players to browse Reddit between matches before switching to full-screen gameplay. Ajit Varma, Head of Firefox, described the partnership as a milestone moment for the browser.

Existing Libraries and Setup

Firefox users can stream games they already own from platforms like the Steam, Epic Games Store, GOG, Xbox PC Game Pass, and Ubisoft Connect. After signing in with a GeForce NOW account, players can open their library and launch supported titles immediately. This integration means users do not need to purchase games separately for the cloud service.

For anyone looking to try the new feature, the process involves updating to the latest version of Firefox and signing in with a GeForce NOW account. The browser support is now live for Windows users who have the most recent version installed. Nvidia plans to share more details about the partnership during Gamescom on August 25.

This technical collaboration required months of engineering work from both companies to meet the strict performance standards required for cloud gaming. While the partnership opens the service to a new user base, support remains exclusive to Firefox on Windows for the time being. No announcement has been made regarding browser support for macOS or Linux.
