An Nvidia GeForce Now datamine has potentially uncovered listings for many unannounced games, including a Steam version of God of War and Gears 6.
In ablogand accompanying video, developer Ighor July has documented how he was able to access the database forNvidia’s GeForce Now streaming service.
It included alistof titles, compiled bySteamDB founderPavel Djundik, featuring unannounced games like Final Fantasy IX Remake, Bioshock RTX Remaster,Resident Evil 4Remake,Halo5 PC, Grand Theft Auto Trilogy remasters, Crysis 4, Half-Life 2 Remastered, Injustice 3 and more.
UPDATE:Nvidia has confirmed that the leaked Geforce Now database list containingGod of WarPC, Gears 6 and more is real, but claims that the games on it are “speculative”.
Update
ORIGINAL STORY CONTINUES:While much of the list could be made up of placeholder titles and titles that may not actually see the light of day (a popularGameCubeemulator is listed, for example), VGC first reported last year that theResident Evil 4 remakehas been in development since 2018, while VGC’s sources have also corroborated reports thatGTA remasters are in development.
According toWindows Central, many of theMicrosoftcode names mentioned on the Nvidia database are related to actual projects, some of which have already been announced as real games such asPlayground’s Fable reboot.
It also claims that GeForce Now has played a prominent role in game development throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, providing remote access in work-from-home environments, which could explain why work-in-progress titles would be listed on the service.
The games listed on the GeForce Now database include:
Unlike most of the titles on the list, God of War is specifically listed for release on Steam.PS5games Returnal and Demon’s Souls are also on the list, for example, but unlike God of War they are not attributed to a distribution platform.
A PC version of God of War would seem like one of the safer bets, withSonyhaving recentlyacquired Nixxes Softwareto help it bring its games to PC.
The publisher releasedHorizon Zero Dawnfor PC in August 2020 andDays Gonefor PC in May 2021. It also announced last week thatUncharted4: A Thief’s End and its expansion Uncharted: The Lost Legacyare getting PS5 and PC remasters, andunveiled God of War’s sequel,God of War Ragnarok.
Speaking in June,PlayStationStudios bossHermen Hulstsaid Horizon had been “very successful” on PC.
“I think it shows there’s an appetite from gamers outside the PlayStation ecosystem to experience the amazing portfolio of games that PlayStation fans have enjoyed for years.
“But I want to emphasize that PlayStation will remain the best place to play our PlayStation Studios titles at launch. But we do valuePC gamers, and we’ll continue to look at the right times to launch each game.”
