It's been a while since the deal between Microsoft and NVIDIA. A lot of games from XBOX pass are already accessible through the GeForce Now cloud gaming.
Do we have any date for the Sea of Thieves appearing on the GeForce Now ?
Assuming Sea of Thieves is part of the deal (which not all MS games are included), it's now on Nvidia to add them.
According to The Verge:
Nvidia is starting to roll out access to PC Game Pass and Microsoft Store titles on its GeForce Now streaming service this week. PC Game Pass subscribers will be able to start streaming titles through GeForce Now on August 24th, including first-party Microsoft games like Deathloop and Grounded as well as third-party titles like No Man’s Sky and Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord.
While PC Game Pass and Microsoft Store games will be available on GeForce Now, not all of them will be available to stream immediately on Nvidia’s service. Nvidia has done the work to integrate the Microsoft Store into GeForce Now, but it still needs to onboard all the games that are available on a PC Game Pass subscription.
That means PC Game Pass subscribers and anyone who has purchased a Microsoft Store game might need to wait a little while yet for their entire library to be available on GeForce Now.

@realstyli Yeah, I saw that article I just wonder if they can provide a date. Well and trying to raise interest - maybe it'll help to rise SoT priority :)
That might be a question best put to Nvidia. Going on what that article says, it's out of Microsoft's hands now.
@realstyli still the article isn't an official statement from Microsoft or Nvidia.
Earlier there were also claims that the issue is that SoT runs exclusively on Win10, so it might be a question to MS.
Anyway, thanks to the author for creating a topic. Maybe it can collect enough interest for somebody to notice. I have the same issue. I enjoy Nvidia cloud gaming but SoT absence there is a huge heartbreaker :(
@captdirtyoar Yeah, well that's a bit different. GeForce Now is a cloud gaming platform. Basically by using it, I don't have to upgrade my PC in order to play on Ultra quality. I got a subscription and can play any games on my old PC. The only downfall is that not all games are represented there (e.g. SoT). However, I found that raising these issues on forums helps.
After losing my laptop in unfair fight with dumb teammates in League of Legends I lost my hope in good teammates, but found one in SoT. Unfortunately, I'm able right now to play only through GFN. Is there any chance to see SoT soon in GFN? I miss it, I need it, development team, please give us any feedback, if it's in the process or our trust, patience are useless here?
Thx
@knurd9369 Expect an answer. Like ANY answer. For example "At the moment it's not even on our roadmap and we have no plans regarding GeForce Now service" - is an answer too.
Just planning my expences and need to understand the best option.
@blackneoo9426 especially taking into account that they already signed on a lot of game pass games with Nvidia and they are available on the GeForceNOW
Interestingly enough I've found one more topic here - https://www.seaofthieves.com/community/forums/topic/144296/geforce-now#:~:text=Sea of Thieves cannot be,mandatory for SoT to run.
It's closed now but it has 17+k views. This should give the idea of the relativity of this question.
@lboostedanimal That's an outdated comment. Nvidia GeforceNow been using Windows 10 and 11 for some time now. There's no excuses left to not add Sea Of Thieves it's just a matter of time.
@colsantos I totally agree with you. I refer to that comment only to show that it has 17+k views which means that a lot of people are very interested in this topic.
