HoYoverse is soon to expand its foothold on the cloud gaming platform with Honkai Star Rail’s GeForce NOW debut. Ever since Nvidia listed this prominent turn-based RPG among the upcoming titles for this year, fans have been anticipating the launch with every update. The wait will finally come to an end, as HSR’s cloud release is scheduled for May 2024.
A similar title from the same company, Genshin Impact, has been present on the platform for quite some time now. The prior experience has certainly helped HoYoverse launch their other game on the cloud service this early.
That said, this article discusses everything there is to know about Star Rail's GeForce NOW release.
Honkai Star Rail GeForce NOW release date
In the latest tweet, HoYoverse has officially announced that Honkai Star Rail will be released on the GeForce NOW cloud gaming platform on May 8, 2024, i.e., after the version 2.2 update. This will increase the game’s accessibility, as players will be able to stream it without downloading the complete installation pack.
The only requirement is a strong and stable internet connection for an unhindered gameplay experience. Besides, HSR will maintain free-to-play like every other game on GeForce NOW.
How to play Honkai Star Rail on GeForce NOW
Following the Honkai Star Rail 2.2 update, you should be able to play the game on GeForce NOW with the following steps:
- Get the Nvidia GeForce NOW. You can download the program via the official webpage or launch it directly from the browser on your PC. For other devices, make sure to install the software.
- Log in to your GeForce NOW account. If you don’t have an account, you can create one by clicking on the Join Today button.
- Launch Star Rail after the 2.2 update. You might have to use a VPN if the game is unavailable in your region.
- Wait in the queue.
You can get a session for an hour for a free account. There are a few subscription services within the cloud gaming platform that let you skip queue time, improve FPS, and provide better streaming quality. So, you can consider purchasing the premium packages, which have the following price tag:
- Priority: $9.99/month or $49.99 for six months
- Ultimate: $19.99/month or $99.99 for six months
Since HSR has a live service model, the extra sessions from the subscriptions will help with your in-game grind. Nevertheless, playing the game via the official launcher is always an option.
