On November 19, 2021, the latest series "Battlefield 2042" will be released, so I chose this popular series.

Although this work is from 5 years ago, it requires a certain amount of specs, but when I used GeForce NOW to play it on my PC... I was able to play without feeling any lag at all. rice field!

　Perhaps there may be a slight delay, but it's at a level that you can't notice it at all. I was able to fully enjoy its comfortable operability and spectacular production.

　Of course, since it's in the cloud, there's no need to download game data to storage.

Normally, "Battlefield 1" would have to download about 47GB of data. One of the advantages of this service is that you can play such large-capacity titles immediately after purchase.

　Multiplayer is also very comfortable. I was able to properly aim at the enemy and deliver a blow (although I was killed by a counterattack immediately after that...).

Next, we decided to play "Battlefield 1" on our smartphones. By the way, the smartphone model is the iPhone XS, which was released about three years ago.

　And we were able to play without any problems! Due to the size of the monitor, the text information is a little difficult to read, but the play feel is as comfortable as a PC.

　With "Battlefield 1" being fully localized in Japanese, including the audio, it was also good to be able to follow the story without being able to read the text.

　"GeForce NOW" allows you to comfortably play games on your PC or smartphone. You can experience it for free, so if you are having trouble playing the game you want to play, please try it once!

For even more comfortable gameplay, we recommend the Premium Plan!

　“GeForce NOW” proved that the free plan was enough to play games with comfort comparable to high-spec PCs. However, the fact that continuous play is limited to 1 hour may feel a little inconvenient depending on the application.

　There is a "premium plan" of 1980 yen [tax included] per month for such people. Here, you can play continuously for 6 hours. When the line is congested, it becomes a priority connection, further improving comfort.

　Some games also support real-time ray tracing with NVIDIA RTX. If you like the free plan and want to experience more comfortable gameplay, please consider it.
