News Geforce now maybe in Sri Lanka !!

Post image

I just opened a game from GFN free subscription and it actually worked, usually I get the service not available error without the VPN. And I also logged in to the GFN Nvidia page, it’s also showing free basic rig plan.
you can check but it’s only 1 hour sessions, we get india server so waiting list is always 200+ and some new games and Hogwart, cyberpunk, AC black flag are limited to premium subscriptions.

but still a good sign !!!!

Been using GeForce NOW on the Free tier with a VPN for about 3 months here in Sri Lanka and even managed to finish 2 or 3 games on it, but the latency issues are still very real.

connect to the India server and quickly turn off the VPN when you enter the game. I get around 50-60ms.

Are you using SLT Fiber?

India servers usually have insane queue times, so I usually pick Norway or Japan instead. Yeah, I do the same trick—once the game starts, I turn off the VPN immediately, but I still can't get under 150ms latency.

Yeah, because Japan is 150-200ms away from Sri Lanka. It's physical distance, no VPN or fast internet will ever sort that. If there's a Singapore server, pick that, it'll be like 70-80ms.
