Today, NVIDIA has announced that CAPCOM’s Street Fighter 6 has joined the GeForce NOW library (as previously confirmed), allowing cloud users to enter the fray. The other major weekly additions to GeForce NOW are Ubisoft’s free-to-play competitive first-person shooter game XDefiant, which registered strong numbers at launch, and the asymmetric multiplayer horror game Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game.
The latter title was just reviewed by Nathan Birch, getting a 6 out of 10 score. Nathan wrote:
At this point in the review, Killer Klowns from Outer Space may sound like a pretty solid asymmetric multiplayer game, and in terms of base mechanics and balance, it is. That said, this is a very crowded sub-genre at this point, so the question has to be, is Killer Klowns as good or better than other top games of this type? I’d be hard-pressed to say yes.
Compared to most of its competitors, playing as a killer in this game just doesn’t feel that exciting, although due to the 3v7 split, you get to do it fairly often. So, would you rather playing as a killer be a rare and exciting thing? Or a more common, yet less unique, experience? That will largely come down to individual taste, but speaking personally, I prefer the former.
Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game is a solidly-conceived asymmetric multiplayer horror game, but a lack of polish and content means it’s unlikely to become a long term go-to for most fans of the genre. There’s some quick and easy fun to be had with Killer Klowns, but a $40 entry fee and an uncertain future make these cheap laughs feel a bit overpriced.
The rest of the new GeForce NOW games for this week are:
● Autopsy Simulator (New release on Steam, June 6)
● Chornobyl Liquidators (New release on Steam, June 6)
● Sneak Out (New release on Steam, June 6)
● Farm Together 2 (Steam)
