NVIDIA's Game-Streaming App Lands on Linux
NVIDIA has officially released its native GeForce Now client for Linux out of beta, making it available as a stable release. The application is now packaged as a Flatpak, with NVIDIA hosting its own dedicated repository separate from FlatHub. This allows the app to be sandbox-able, self-updating, and portable across distributions that support Flatpak, though official certification is for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and newer.
This release makes cloud gaming more accessible on Linux systems, potentially allowing users with less powerful hardware to stream high-end games. It addresses issues with input lag, keyboard layouts, and video scaling, improving the user experience for Linux gamers.
