NVIDIA have today released the Beta for their new Native Linux app for GeForce NOW, available as a Flatpak so it should run across most x86-64 systems. Thanks to NVIDIA I was able to get some early testing in to see how the experience holds up, with NVIDIA providing Ultimate-plan access.

What actually is it? GeForce NOW is a cloud gaming service from NVIDIA. It allows you to play games streamed from their servers to your devices. This includes various free to play games and games you own from your own libraries across Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox PC Game Pass, Battle.net, Ubisoft Connect and EA. There's currently over 4,500 games available.
