Nvidia calls the following devices:
- Meta Quest 3 and 3S
- Pico mixed reality devices (Nvidia does not specify which Pico headsets)
- Apple Vision Pro
This means that it will be possible to stream gamepad-compatible flat PC games in high quality to the headsets and play them on a virtual big screen. There is no mention of PC VR streaming.
Geforce Now support will be available in January with version 2.0.70. The service will be accessible through the device's browsers by visiting the dedicated website.

Microsoft gets competition
Geforce Now is the second streaming service for flat gaming available for Meta Quest after Xbox Cloud Gaming.
With the Xbox Cloud Gaming app, Game Pass titles can be played on a virtual big screen since the end of 2023. Meta Quest 3, 3S, 2 and Pro are supported. A Game Pass Ultimate subscription is required.
One advantage of Geforce Now is that the service is available in many more countries than Xbox Cloud Gaming.
