The two biggest additions from this announcement are Street Fighter 6 and XDefiant. Street Fighter 6 is the latest installment of Capcom's iconic fighting game franchise and is one of the biggest, content-rich entries in the series to date. 

This game features an extremely complex combat system, a rich roster of classic and new characters that are fun to play, breathtaking graphics, a lengthy single-player campaign that will help new players learn the basics of Street Fighter and superb online multiplayer.

If you're into 1v1 fighting games, then this game is a must-have and worthy addition to NVIDIA GeForce NOW's library

The second major highlight from this batch of GeForce NOW titles is XDefiant, a new free-to-play first-person arena shooter published by Ubisoft and created by former Call of Duty developers. It's an ambitious title that combines arcadey FPS gunplay action with mechanics inspired by hero shooters like Overwatch 2.

This game caught major attention across the gaming community and us here at Windows Central. Some of us, like our own Michael Hoglund, can't stop playing XDefiant because it features superb competitive gameplay and balanced skill-based matchmaking. 

Meanwhile, our own Cole Martin criticized it in her review for XDefiant for having tedious leveling and weapon grinding systems, maps that are too large, unbalanced match-ups, and limited accessibility with no pings.

However, if you're a fan of first-person shooters and want to see if this stylish alternative to Call of Duty will tide you over until Call of Duty Black Ops 6 comes out, then XDefiant is worth giving a shot, especially now that it's available to stream via GeForce NOW.

Stay tuned for more news as NVIDIA GeForce NOW continues to expand its line-up with some of the best PC games and the best Xbox Games available to play through Xbox's PC Game Pass.
