Nvidia RTX 50-Series Likely to Debut at CES 2025 Amid Hype-Building Campaign
Endless speculation surrounding Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards may soon be put to rest, as CES 2025 in January appears poised for the big reveal. Powered by Nvidia’s new “Blackwell” architecture, the next-gen GPUs have been the subject of significant buzz, further fueled by Nvidia’s recent marketing moves.
During the Game Awards, Nvidia effectively dropped a major hint with a cinematic trailer for The Witcher 4. The trailer, pre-rendered in Unreal Engine 5, included a note confirming it ran on “an unannounced Nvidia GeForce RTX GPU.” Coupled with a simultaneous promotional push for GeForce LAN 50, a “50 Hour Gaming Marathon” event tied to Nvidia’s 25th GPU anniversary, the stage is set for a grand unveiling at CES.
The company’s social media activity adds to the excitement, with GeForce’s Twitter teasing a CES keynote on January 6. A landing page for the festivities also hints at the RTX 50-series reveal, noting, “Before we look to the future, let’s take a nostalgic journey to celebrate the all-time greats of PC gaming.”
Nvidia is clearly building momentum for the RTX 50-series launch. The big questions are whether the reveal will include flagship GPUs like the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, and how these cards will position themselves against Intel’s emerging Arc B580 graphics card, a budget-friendly powerhouse. Stay tuned for updates as Nvidia’s CES keynote approaches.
