US EditionNvidia GeForce Now Expected to Gain Official Linux Support as Early as This Week
Nvidia aims to offer Linux users a native GeForce Now client and expand its game library, including four new titles, to compete with Valve's Steam Deck ecosystem.
- This coming week Nvidia is reportedly planning native Linux support for GeForce Now, with the reveal speculated during the weekly update on Thursday, January 8.
- On Valve's Steam Deck, users must switch to desktop mode, download Nvidia's installer and launch the app from Gaming Mode Library, while a native Linux client would let Linux users ditch unofficial workarounds.

- Subscriber reactions include concerns over the 100‑hour monthly play cap that takes effect this month on January 1, 2026, amid uncertain Linux support growth, which stood just under 3.2 percent as of December 2025.
- Amid exploding RAM prices, Nvidia is also broadening device and peripheral support, including native Amazon Fire TV support, making GeForce Now at $19.99 for the Ultimate tier a more appealing value.
