A massive data leak on Nvidia GeForce Now has possibly revealed dozens of previously unannounced games. Many of the games appear to be PC ports of PlayStation titles, including Returnal and Demon's Souls.
Nvidia GeForce Now is a streaming service that connects to the many digital PC storefronts, offering thousands of games to play instantly. It operates similarly to Xbox Cloud Gaming with Game Pass, or PlayStation Now, where users subscribe to the service and are immediately given access to the library without jumping through any additional hoops.
Over the past year or so, PlayStation has slowly brought some of its console-exclusive games like Horizon Zero Dawn, Death Stranding, and Days Gone to PC, with supposed plans of bringing more in the future. If the leaks are to be believed, it looks like many more PC ports of beloved PlayStation titles could be on the way.
Recently, a user by the name of Ighor July on Medium revealed listings for a multitude of PlayStation games from the Nvidia GeForce Now store. In an attempt to recover some deleted games, July stumbled upon the list of PlayStation titles, including:
- Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Edition
- HELLDIVERS 2
- Horizon Forbidden West
- GT7
- Déraciné
- God of War
- Returnal
- Demon's Souls
- Ratchet and Clank
- Sackboy: A Big Adventure
- Ghost of Tsushima
According to July, the listings of these games should be taken with salt as they can be either old, canceled, or serving as testing data for new developments in these franchises. Notable missing titles are the rumored Bloodborne PC port, as well as Insomniac's Spider-Man games, and Naughty Dog's The Last of Us.
Interestingly, despite the ambiguous nature of why some of these titles are listed here, the Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection is significant. The Legacy of Thieves Collection was announced at the PlayStation Showcase 2021 last week, a bundle bringing Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and Lost Legacy to the PS5 and PC. For the collection to appear alongside unannounced PC ports like Returnal and Demon's Souls makes it seem the games, at the very least, are being tested on GeForce Now. Maybe they will eventually receive formal PC treatments. Of course, it could've been added to lend it some false credence.
Unfortunately, for the time being, there is not much more that can be done to verify the truthfulness of the leak. On the internal PlayStation side, there have been previous suggestions that PlayStation was working on more PC ports like the PlayStation Studios Steam page. However, considering how infrequently PlayStation has been bringing its games to PC, with three or four titles in the past two years, it may be quite a while before any of these games make it to a PC storefront.
