Nvidia and Google have teamed up to introduce an exclusive cloud-gaming upgrade for Chromebook users. The newly announced GeForce Now Fast Pass is designed specifically for ChromeOS devices and will allow players to stream more than 2,000 games from their existing PC libraries — completely free of ads.
In a major added benefit, Google has confirmed that anyone purchasing a new Chromebook will receive a complimentary one-year Fast Pass membership. The offer significantly enhances the gaming value of Chromebooks, which continue to grow in popularity among students, casual gamers, and cloud-first users.
Fast Pass functions similarly to GeForce Now’s free tier, which already supports game streaming from platforms such as Steam, Epic Games Store, and Xbox. However, Nvidia has introduced two key upgrades: the removal of all ads and the elimination of queue times. Free-tier users typically wait in line for up to two minutes before starting a game, but Fast Pass allows Chromebook owners to bypass these delays entirely.
The service essentially bridges the gap between free and paid cloud-gaming access, offering an uninterrupted experience without requiring players to purchase high-end hardware. By combining Chromebook efficiency with Nvidia’s cloud-powered performance, users can enjoy popular titles with improved convenience and smoother access.
The launch reflects Google’s broader push to expand Chromebook capabilities, while Nvidia continues to establish itself as a leader in the fast-growing cloud-gaming market. With thousands of titles available and no need for installations or expensive GPUs, Fast Pass is likely to appeal to a wide range of gamers looking for hassle-free play.
For now, the one-year free Fast Pass offer applies only to newly purchased Chromebooks, setting the stage for an enticing entry point for gaming-ready devices heading into 2026.
