Gamers using GeForce NOW to play Call of Duty are reportedly being banned

Call of Duty gamers may be banned for using GeForce NOW

First ROG Ally users, now GeForce NOW.

NVIDIA GeForce NOW is said to be impacting Call of Duty players. Reports suggest that users might encounter bans while utilizing this game-streaming service. According to the information, a glitch is leading to players being flagged and subsequently banned when the GeForce NOW service is identified as a form of cheating.

Just yesterday, the company revealed the inclusion of 65 new games to the GeForce NOW library this December. The game streaming service enables users to play titles they already possess. For individuals with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III, Modern Warfare II or Warzone in their collection they could theoretically start playing without installing these gamers through NVIDIA service. However, it is strongly advised not to do so for now due to a possible ban.

Due to a licensing dispute between NVIDIA and Activision in 2020, GeForce NOW lost access to all Activision-Blizzard games. Nevertheless, the service has been gradually rebuilding its game lineup, with new additions on a weekly basis.

Several months back, NVIDIA announced that Microsoft PC Game Pass games will be available through GeForce NOW. Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision has not yet resulted in the integration of their games into Game Pass this year. However, GeForce NOW inclusion may be a first step.

It is worth noting that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 anti-cheating services have been imposing bans on gamers using handheld systems, particularly on the ASUS ROG Ally. These bans were triggered by the overlay application, which was identified as a form of cheating. A similar glitch may be causing bans for GeForce NOW players.
