How to claim free PC Game Pass on Nvidia App? Detailed steps, offer eligibility, and more explored

You can now get three months of PC Game Pass for free on the beta Nvidia App. The promotion was launched at Computex 2024 and is available with driver update 555.99 launched this Tuesday. Nvidia is primarily using this as a way to get more users into their redesigned app, which is set to replace Geforce Experience and Control Panel soon.

The Game Pass giveaway has no strings attached: you must log into your Geforce account and redeem it once for free. You can then download the Xbox App on PC and start enjoying the vast library of subscription service bundles.

Is PC Game Pass redemption not working on the Nvidia App?

The PC Game Pass giveaway has begun on June 4. As of writing, gamers can't redeem the subscription service due to faults on Nvidia's half.

I tried to get my copy of Game Pass. After successfully logging into the service, I was greeted with a "Temporarily down for maintenance" page. It also says "We'll be back online shortly," so my guess is Nvidia is still prepping their website for the giveaway.
