Last weeks the games that belong to Activision were removed from Nvidia's new video game streaming service GeForce Now, after the incident, Nvidia said that Activision has asked them to remove their titles from the video game streaming service, but there had been no explanation on why Activision asked to remove their games from the service, reported by Bloomberg.
But later Nvidia said that there is a misunderstanding in the deal between them made during the beta testing of GeForce Now, Activision made a deal that only let its games be used on GeForce Now during the beta program, but Nvidia thought that they can use Activision's games even after the service was released to the public.
The reason for the disagreement to keep the games on GeForce Now is, Activision wanted a commercial agreement before it can let Nvidia use their games on the new video game streaming platform GeForce Now.
Nvidia confirmed to The Verge, that "they did, in fact, reach out to Activision ahead of launch to ask whether the giant game company was ok with its games staying on the paid version of the service, there was a misunderstanding about whether Activision actually gave that permission."
Nvidia said in a statement,
Activision Blizzard has been a fantastic partner during the GeForce Now beta, which we took to include the free trial period for our founders membership, Recognizing the misunderstanding, we removed their games from our service, with hope we can work with them to re-enable these, and more, in the future.
