Linus Tech Tips takes us on a wild ride through 2025 cloud gaming, showing that Nvidia’s GeForce NOW is finally delivering surprisingly smooth gameplay in titles like Indiana Jones, Borderlands 4, and Apex Legends. They run side-by-side comparisons against a beefy local rig (Ryzen 7 9800X3D, RTX 5080, DDR5 RAM, etc.) and find that, while there’s still a hair of latency, the overall experience is shockingly close to playing on your own hardware.
It’s great news if you’ve wanted to ditch expensive upgrades, but maybe a bit scary if you sell GPUs for a living—because if cloud streaming keeps getting this good, who knows what the future holds for PC gaming as we know it?
