To celebrate the 6th birthday of the GeForce NOW service, NVIDIA has decided to treat users of the Amazon ecosystem. The cloud gaming application has officially landed on the Fire TV system. If you have a cheap Fire TV Stick or a newer TV with this system, like a Panasonic, you can launch the most demanding PC games (from Steam, Epic or Game Pass) directly on the big screen. You don't need a computer worth thousands of dollars. All you need is a controller, stable Wi-Fi, and a subscription to the app that has just become available for download.
Panasonic OLED with Fire TV under our microscope
This announcement is particularly good news for fans of Japanese picture precision. As you may know, the latest Panasonic TVs – including powerful OLED models like Z95A and the newest Z95B – have abandoned the old My Home Screen system in favour of Fire TV. This means GeForce NOW becomes a native app there. We will soon test this solution in practice on Panasonic TVs and update the reviews to let you know if the app is indeed available for download.
What exactly will you play on?
Initially, the support covers the most popular "stick" devices, namely Fire TV Stick 4K Max (1st and 2nd generation) and Fire TV Stick 4K Plus. The application requires Fire OS version 7 or 8 at a minimum (depending on the model). Although the quality is currently limited to Full HD, it is still a massive leap for those who want to play new titles like Kingdom Come: Deliverance or REANIMAL without buying a console for the TV.
