Play Your Way
GeForce NOW and CurseForge have teamed up to bring a seamless modding experience to World of Warcraft. Players can now enjoy user interface customization, combat Addons, action bars, quest helpers, and more. With over 25 top Addons available, Ultimate and Priority members, including Day Pass users, can easily customize their WoW experience without needing a CurseForge account.
After launching WoW on GeForce NOW, players can enable Addons from the game’s menu. The Addons update automatically, and GeForce NOW remembers the selected Addons for each game launch. This feature is available across all supported WoW experiences, including Classic and Cataclysm Classic.
Players can share their World of Warcraft Addons in the cloud on social media using #ModsonGFN for a chance to be featured on GeForce NOW’s channels.
