Moonlight (formerly Limelight) is an open-source implementation of NVIDIA's GameStream protocol. It implemented the protocol used by the NVIDIA Shield and wrote a set of 3rd party clients. Are you ready to stream? Enjoy!
You can stream your collection of PC games from your GameStream-compatible PC to any supported device and play them remotely. Moonlight for PC is perfect for gaming on the go without sacrificing the graphics and game selection available on PC. Also, available Moonlight for ChromeOS, stream to ChromeOS laptops and tablets!
