Independent producer Klei Entertainment has also removed its games from the streaming service.

The game streaming service GeForce Now, made by Nvidia, has just suffered another big crash: the producers Xbox Game Studios, Warner Bros, Codemasters and Klei Entertainment they removed their games from the platform. The departure of the companies comes after other big names in the industry, such as Activision-Blizzard, also follow this path.

Xbox Game Studios is the producer of Microsoft games, leaving GeForce Now without support for franchise games like Halo and Gears of War. Warner is responsible for titles like the Batman Arkham series, while Codemasters makes games. racing, like Formula 1. Finally, Klei Entertainment is a benchmark among independent studios and released games like Don’t Starve and Mark of the Ninja.

Launched in February, GeForce Now is a game streaming service that allows stream games you already have in stores like Steam and Epic Games Store. Currently, the platform is available on smartphones and PCs, it has a free plan and it can even be used in Brazil for free, even if there are no servers here (yet).

Although the service has reached more than a million users thanks to its accessibility, some publishers are not happy with the platform’s business model. In addition to the free plan, GeForce Now now has a premium version that offers faster streaming and better graphics, all without the player having to purchase an exclusive copy of the game for the cloud, like on Google Stadia.

According to Nvidia, this process of leaving the games should last until May and the company is already working to ensure greater transparency for consumers. “We are working with game stores to mark the games that can be streamed with GeForce Now, as soon as the game is released,” the company explains.

The company also said deletions are rare and that the forty most popular Steam games are working with GeForce Now. This week, the company also announced that more Ubisoft titles will be joining the platform, including the Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry games.
