Nvidia Responds to Recent GeForce NOW Data Leak and Explains List of Titles

Nvidia addressed yesterday's leak of GeForce NOW data. According to the company, the presence of particular games in the database does not mean that they will actually be announced.

IN A NUTSHELL:
  • Nvidia responded to yesterday's GeForce NOW data leak;
  • According to the company, the presence of certain games on the list does not mean that they will actually be created;
  • The titles were supposed to be added to the database as part of internal testing.

Yesterday, news of a big leak from the GeForce NOW database circulated the web. It suggested that a number of Sony exclusives were coming to PC. The leak also announced a lot of games that were previously only rumored. Nvidia finally responded to the gigantic leak.

In response to questions from Wccftech, a company spokesman said that the presence of certain titles on the list does not mean that they will actually be created.

"NVIDIA is aware of an unauthorized published game list, with both released and/or speculative titles, used only for internal tracking and testing. Inclusion on the list is neither confirmation nor an announcement of any game.

NVIDIA took immediate action to remove access to the list. No confidential game builds or personal information were exposed."

So officially nothing happened, and the leak has little to do with reality. The question remains whether this is true or just an attempt to quickly extinguish the fire. Gamers who have already mentally prepared themselves to play PlayStation hits on PCs should cool off a bit, however. The company's stance means that most of the titles on the list are merely the result of speculation.

It should be remembered, however, that Sony announced some time ago that it would be preparing more of its games for PC in the future. In turn, rumors about such productions, such as remasters of several installments of the GTA series were circulating around the web for months. Ultimately, it's very difficult to say whether the information that appeared yesterday in the Internet is worth the attention of players.
