Unfortunately no. Nvidia said in the news a generic September.

Anyway in

Northern California (San Jose/San Francisco)
Illinois (Chicago)
New Jersey (Newark/New York City)
France 1 (Paris)
Germany (Frankfurt)

They are already up and running but still underpowered to match the power of the Rtx 4080-class (Nvidia L40).

Basically you're a tester:
The games that are opt-in but not yet tested by Nvidia, you can install and play.

Normally when the developers ask to Nvidia to opt- in by signing up to this if the games are on Steam( https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/cloudgaming ) the game by that stage of onboarding can take a while. For example if a dev opts in their game and Nvidia decides to onboard it, it may take days or even weeks of testing to ensure it runs smoothly with no issues.
By doing this, you practically eliminate this waiting part... It's to the advantage of indie games.

Exactly, or EAFC, Gta, etc...
The initial process remains the same, the devs need to opt-in first.

Yes... Nvidia said even on Gamescom announcement - " Install and Play" Feature, minute 2:10 " As soon as the PUBLISHER OPT IN the Steam cloud feature".....
