A Tale of Two NieRs

NieR:Automata and NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139… — two captivating action RPGs from Square Enix — delve into profound existential themes and are set in a distant, postapocalyptic future.

Existence is futile, except in the cloud.

Control androids 2B, 9S and A2 as they battle machine life-forms in a proxy war for human survival in NieR:Automata. The game explores complex philosophical concepts through its multiple endings and perspective shifts, blurring the lines between man and machine. It seamlessly mixes stylish and exhilarating combat with open-world exploration for a diverse gameplay experience.

The hero’s journey leads to the cloud.

NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139…, an updated version of the original NieR game, follows a young man’s quest to save his sister from a mysterious illness called the Black Scrawl. Uncover dark secrets about their world while encountering a cast of unforgettable characters and making heart-wrenching decisions.

Unravel the layers of the emotionally charged world of NieR with each playthrough on GeForce NOW. Experience rich storytelling and intense combat without high-end hardware. Carefully explore every possible loop with extended gaming sessions for Performance and Ultimate members.

Find Zen in the Cloud

Dive into the Hollows.

Zenless Zone Zero, the free-to-play action role-playing game from HoYoverse, is set in the post-apocalyptic metropolis of New Eridu. Take on the role of a “Proxy” and guide others through dangerous alternate dimensions to confront an interdimensional threat. The game features a fast-paced, combo-oriented combat system and offers a mix of intense action, character-driven storytelling and exploration of a unique futuristic world.

The title comes to the cloud in time for the version 1.4 update, A Storm of Falling Stars, bringing additions to the game for new and experienced players alike. Joining the roster of playable characters are Frost Anomaly agent Hoshimi Miyabi and Electric Attack agent Asaba Harumasa. Plus, the revamped Decibel system allows individual characters to collect and use Decibels instead of sharing across the squad, offering a new layer of strategy. Explore two new areas, Port Elpis and Reverb Arena, and try out the new “Hollow Zero-Lost Void” mode.

Experience the adventure on GeForce NOW and dive deeper into New Eridu across devices with a Performance or Ultimate membership. Snag some in-game loot by following the GeForce NOW social channels (X, Facebook, Instagram, Threads) and be on the lookout for for a limited-quantity redemption code for a free reward package — including 20,000 Dennies, three Official Investigator Logs and three W-Engine Power Supplies.
