Games can be now be directly streamed to any device where there is a reliable and fast internet connection. But if you try to sign up with GeForce Now in India, you will receive a message that it is not supported in your region. Head up to the podium If you’re willing to wait, you can Sign up now – and be on the waiting list for a chance to be part of the beta in the first few months after launch in India.

What You’ll Need

VPN Account (which lets you connect to an EU Northwest server). Mac, Windows Machine Decent/Fast Internet Connection

Step 1 – Connect VPN

Open up your VPN provider. Use ProtonVPN for 7 days free trial and 5$ / Month after that. Connect to any EU-Northwest server in your VPN servers list. For ProtonVPN users: connect to a Sweden server.

Step 1 (Alternative) – If you don’t want an expensive VPN Service.

VPNs can be easy to use, but a reliable and safe VPN will always charge you money for their services, and the free ones are not reliable or safe. Since this is a technical website, I would feel bad if I did not include any free alternatives to expensive VPNs out there. There are quite a few alternatives to using an expensive VPN service, but obviously, they’re only helpful if you are a technical person and know your way around a few cloud services. Get Google’s always the free server in the EU Northwest region. Install shuttle on your local machine, which will allow us to use that virtual server as a VPN server (tunnel all your traffic through the server).

Step 2 – Sign up and Download GeForce Now in India

Go to Nvidia GeForce Now sign up page and click JOIN TODAY —> Create Account

Choose a plan

Free Plan: 1-hour continuous playtime limit. Founders Plan (5$ / Month): 6 hours continuous playtime; RTX option; Priority Access to service resources. Go to GeForce Now downloads page and download the GeForce Now for your device. Install the GeForce Now application on your system and login.

Step 3 – Connect Steam and Launch Game

Once you’ve logged into your GeForce Account, Search for a game. After searching for a game, click on Play. Only certain games are free to play (eg. Fortnite), for others you’ll need to purchase them on their respective stores. If you own a game on a store for example steam: then GeForce Now will ask/guide you through the process of linking your steam account for verifying that you own that game. Only after a game is launched – You can disconnect your VPN ( or close your shuttle tunnel ). Disconnecting the VPN at this stage will allow you to connect directly to Nvidia Servers bypassing the VPN and getting more speed. If you had launched an EC2 Instance for VPN tunnel, you can stop that instance now until you need to launch another game. This will help keep the costs low. Depending upon the game, it might take 3-4 minutes to launch, so be patient and don’t exit thinking the window is unresponsive.
