NVIDIA added six playable demos and one Early Access-style tryout set to GeForce NOW this week, letting members stream them without installing local PC files. (nvidia.com) (store.steampowered.com) The new additions are Huntsman Demo, Rupture Demo, Airport Contraband Demo, TerraTech Legion Demo, Flock Around and Megastore Simulator, which is listed on Steam as an Early Access management game rather than a demo.

(store.steampowered.com) (store.steampowered.com) (store.steampowered.com) Megastore Simulator, by contrast, is already in Early Access on Steam after launching February 2, with recent updates adding warehouse automation, pallet-rack restocking and other store-management tools.

(nvidia.com) (play.google.com) NVIDIA says the GeForce NOW catalog now includes more than 5,460 games, and the company continues to position weekly “GFN Thursday” drops as a way to surface new releases, rewards and smaller PC projects. (nvidia.com) (nvidia.com) (blogs.nvidia.com) For developers, that means a demo can show up on the same cloud platform as major publishers; for players, it means a horror demo like Huntsman or a niche co-op birdwatching game like Flock Around can be tried in minutes. (store.steampowered.com) (store.steampowered.com) (nvidia.com) The immediate result is simple: six smaller PC games just got a friction-free audition on a cloud service NVIDIA says reaches thousands of titles across nearly any screen.
