NVIDIA launches GeForce Trading Cards Series 1, a free 14-design collection celebrating milestones in GeForce history, including iconic GPUs and classic demos.

At in-person events, fans should visit booths, seek GeForce Jacob, and watch for giveaway opportunities announced on social channels.

While specifics aren’t fully confirmed, Gamescom in August is expected to feature card giveaways, with broader activity teased on Nvidia’s GeForce X accounts.

Fans are invited to answer which GeForce card and game started their journey with GeForce to unlock a pack.

Milestones highlighted span the mid-2000s, from the GeForce 7800 GTX to the GeForce 10 Series with Pascal, noting rendering and efficiency gains, affordable high-resolution gaming, and early VR demos like Bubble, Chameleon, and Medusa.

Each card carries a black PCB-inspired design with a GeForce logo and is numbered (e.g., 01/11), implying additional designs exist.

Some cards honor Unreal Tournament 2004, Borderlands, and a Cyberpunk 2077–inspired RTX 2080 Ti design, plus a special edition and a collector’s checklist.

A Checklist card tracks the Series 1 lineup and its historic moments for collectors.

Live events like Bilibili World, QuakeCon, and Gamescom are slated for Series 1 pack distributions, with GeForce Evangelist Jacob Freeman as a contact.

Nvidia hints at future series beyond Series 1 as part of ongoing Summer of RTX promotions.

Series 1 cards are free but require watching social channels for exclusive giveaways and can be picked up at select summer gaming events.

The 14 designs cover GPUs and moments such as NV1, GeForce 256, GeForce 3, GeForce 7800 GTX, GeForce 10 Series, and demos like Bubble, Chameleon, Medusa, plus Way It’s Meant To Be Played references to Unreal Tournament 2004 and Borderlands.
