Nvidia Shield streams Tomb Raider for free

Square has signed up with Nvidia to offer a host of its games on the green company's Android micro console. The 2013 game, not the very latest Rise of the Tomb Raider, is out today and will be followed by Sleeping Dogs, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, Quantum Conundrum, and Murdered: Soul Suspect.


The games will steam via the Grid service so are basically PC games running on a remote server down to the Android. The Nvidia Now service is free for three months and then $7.99 a month, so not far off Sony's PlayStation Now streaming service, but with a big gap in the number of games, for now.
