Gaijin Single Sign-On and New Titles Hit GeForce NOW: Everything You Need to Know
GeForce NOW just made logging in and jumping into battle faster than ever. With a new single sign-on (SSO) integration for Gaijin.net accounts, members can now link their libraries once and stream supported games—like the massive combined-arms experience of War Thunder—without repeated password prompts. On top of that, seven additional titles join the cloud this week, many powered by NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 performance for Ultimate members. Here's everything you need to know, answered in simple Q&A format.
1. What exactly is the Gaijin Single Sign-On feature on GeForce NOW?
Gaijin Single Sign-On (SSO) is a new account-linking option that lets you connect your Gaijin.net account directly to GeForce NOW in a few clicks. Once linked, you won't need to type in your Gaijin credentials every time you launch a supported game. Instead, the cloud service automatically authenticates you, so you can go straight from the library screen into the action. This is the same streamlined system already available for platforms like Xbox and Ubisoft Connect. For Gaijin fans, it means less typing and more gaming—especially if you jump between War Thunder, Crossout, or any other Gaijin title on the service.

2. How do I link my Gaijin.net account to GeForce NOW?
Linking is simple. Open the GeForce NOW app on your PC or Mac. Navigate to Settings (the gear icon), then look for a section labeled “Connections.” There you'll find an option to sign in with your Gaijin.net account—just click it, enter your credentials once, and you're done. After that, any supported Gaijin game you own will appear in your library ready to stream. The link persists across sessions, so you only need to do it one time. If you ever want to disconnect, you can return to the same menu and remove the connection.
3. Which new games are coming to GeForce NOW this week?
Seven titles join the cloud this week, offering everything from rhythm brawlers to tactical shooters. The full list includes: Dead as Disco (new on Steam, May 5), HUNTDOWN: OVERTIME (new on Steam, May 7), Nuclear Option (Steam), Sintopia (Steam), Kiln (Steam and Xbox, also on Game Pass), Hotel Architect (Steam), and PowerWash Simulator 2 (Xbox, also on Game Pass). All of these are immediately playable for GeForce NOW members. Ultimate-tier subscribers get the extra benefit of GeForce RTX 5080-class performance across most of these titles.
4. How does the new RTX 5080 performance affect gameplay for Ultimate members?
NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5080—now powering nearly the entire GeForce NOW library for Ultimate members—delivers a massive boost in graphical fidelity and frame rates. For streaming, this means you can play at higher resolutions (up to 4K) with improved ray tracing, faster load times, and smoother response even in graphically intense games. Ultra-low latency mode also reduces input lag, making competitive shooters and fast-paced brawlers feel more responsive. Whether you're flying a jet in War Thunder or punching to the beat in Dead as Disco, the experience is closer to local high-end hardware.

5. Can you tell me more about the game “Dead as Disco”?
Dead as Disco is a rhythm-infused brawler from Brain Jar Games that turns every fight into a dance floor showdown. Set in a neon-drenched, fever-dream city, you must time your punches, dodges, and takedowns to the music's beat. Chain combos and stay in sync to unleash more powerful moves—if your groove falters, so does your chance of survival. The game launches on Steam May 5 and is available day one on GeForce NOW, meaning you can stream it instantly without waiting for a download. It's a perfect example of how cloud gaming removes friction: just link your account, click play, and start dancing through the chaos.
6. What other games are worth checking out in this update?
Beyond the headliner, there are a few gems: HUNTDOWN: OVERTIME is a fast-paced shooter sequel where you hunt down bounties in neon-lit levels. Nuclear Option is a tactical first-person shooter with realistic combat scenarios—available now for strategy fans. PowerWash Simulator 2 brings the satisfying cleaning grind to Xbox Game Pass, and Hotel Architect lets you design and manage your own hotel empire. All of these benefit from the RTX 5080 power for Ultimate members, so you can expect crisp visuals and high frame rates right from the cloud.
