GeForce NOW August Update: First Weekly Schedule Brings New Games This Week

Nvidia’s GeForce NOW has rolled out its first weekly schedule for August, and it’s already shaping up to be a busy month for cloud gaming. The service is bringing new compatible releases across a mix of genres—multiplayer, FPS, and adventure—starting immediately, with a larger wave of additions later in the month.

What’s landing on GeForce NOW this week

Beginning this week, GeForce NOW opens access to several new titles, including the multiplayer game Big Walk and the investigation adventure L’Affaire de la Maison Galley. For players looking for a co-op anchor, World of Warships: Legends is positioned as the main multiplayer draw on the schedule.

• Big Walk (Steam, available)
• L’Affaire de la Maison Galley (Steam)
• World of Warships: Legends (Steam)
• Beacon Pines (Epic Games Store, available)
• Sovereign Tower (Steam, available)
• Expeditions: Samurai (Steam, 7 August)
• The Adventures of Elliot: The Millenium Tales (Xbox / Microsoft Store)
• Machine Party (Steam, available)

The mid-month ramp: more FPS, survival-horror, and co-op action

Later in August, the update leans harder into action. The schedule includes a set of FPS entries built around the High On Life franchise, with the second installment highlighted as the stronger choice. There’s also a survival-horror follow-up in The Sinking City 2, plus Gallipoli, which rounds out the shooter lineup. On top of that, Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 is due to arrive, and it brings a licensed co-op structure to the table.

• Pax Autocratica (Steam, 10 August)
• Car Wash Simulator (Steam, 10 August)
• Clawed (Steam, 13 August)
• Hell Let Loose: Vietnam (Steam, 13 August)
• Sandustry (Steam / Xbox, 13 August)
• The Sinking City 2 (Steam, 18 August)
• Mortal Shell II (Steam, 20 August)
• Gallipoli (Steam, 20 August)
• Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 (Steam, 25 August)
• Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy (Steam / Xbox, 27 August)
• Breathedge 2 (Steam, 30 August)

Big franchises and genre variety: why this schedule matters

GeForce NOW’s August plan doesn’t just stack releases—it also spreads them across player preferences. If you’re the type of player who rotates between competitive multiplayer, single-player story experiences, and co-op shooters, this lineup is designed to keep that cycle going without requiring a platform switch. The inclusion of both High on Life and High on Life 2 is especially notable for players who want continuity, while Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy extends an existing universe with sword combat set in a Mediterranean setting.

• Multiplayer options are front-loaded with World of Warships: Legends leading the early wave.
• FPS variety expands mid-month via High on Life entries, Gallipoli, and Hell Let Loose: Vietnam.
• Survival-horror gets a major follow-up with The Sinking City 2.
• Licensed co-op is covered through Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2.
• Adventure fans have a dedicated entry in Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy.

Late-month additions: High on Life continues, plus a grab bag of other releases

As August progresses toward the end, the schedule continues with more genre variety. Alongside High on Life and High on Life 2, players will see additional Steam additions including Paradise Killer and a selection of smaller titles like Starvester and Misery. The list of late arrivals rounds out the month with multiple entries that should appeal to both mainstream and niche tastes.

• High on Life (Steam)
• High on Life 2 (Steam / Xbox)
• Paradise Killer (Steam)
• Misery (Steam)
• Pratfall (Steam)
• Starvester (Steam)
