Denuvo has filed a lawsuit against an individual known as "voices38" for allegedly tampering with and bypassing its anti-piracy technology, which is used in various popular PC games. The lawsuit was initiated in the U.S. Northern District Court of California, claiming violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). Denuvo describes voices38 as a "computer hacker" who has cracked numerous games, including titles like Doom: The Dark Ages and Hogwarts Legacy. Voices38 responded casually on Reddit, indicating a lack of concern for the lawsuit. Denuvo's business model relies on selling DRM solutions, and while it cannot sue for copyright infringement, it claims to be harmed by voices38's activities. The lawsuit lists several games that voices38 has allegedly cracked and marks Denuvo's first legal action against a video game pirate in the U.S. The company is also attempting to uncover voices38's true identity and may file subpoenas to gather more information. Public sentiment appears to be against Denuvo, with criticism regarding its software's impact on legitimate users.

On August 27, 2026, a class action lawsuit was filed in San Mateo County Superior Court by three California gamers—Alexander Shimota, Ricardo Camargo, and John Elliott—against Valve Corporation and ten video game publishers, accusing them of colluding to maintain uniform pricing for PC games across digital storefronts. The lawsuit alleges that Valve requires publishers on its Steam platform to agree to a most-favored-nation clause, preventing them from offering lower prices on competing platforms, which stifles competition and limits consumer choice. The ten implicated publishers include Activision Blizzard, Electronic Arts, and Sony Interactive Entertainment. The lawsuit is filed under California's Cartwright Act and claims that the coordinated pricing strategy harms consumers by reducing product diversity and inflating prices. Valve's commission structure, which has largely remained unchanged, is central to the plaintiffs' argument. Valve's co-founder, Gabe Newell, has previously denied dictating prices to third-party developers. The lawsuit is distinct from a prior case, Wolfire Games v. Valve, which focuses on monopoly abuse against developers rather than consumer pricing. Additionally, Valve faces a parallel £2 billion class action in the UK regarding similar pricing allegations. The outcome of these cases could significantly impact the pricing landscape for PC games and the practices of digital storefronts.
