Capcom ditches Resident Evil 4 Remake’s new, performance-choking DRM

Capcom's recent decision to replace Denuvo DRM with Enigma Protector for the Resident Evil 4 Remake lasted only 28 days due to performance issues reported by players. Digital Foundry confirmed that CPU performance suffered compared to the Denuvo version, leading to a rise in negative reviews despite the game maintaining a high Steam user score. On March 3, Capcom removed Enigma Protector from Resident Evil 4, leaving the game without any third-party DRM currently listed on its Steam page. There is no indication that Denuvo has been reinstated. GOG offers DRM-free alternatives but does not host Resident Evil 4 or the newly released Requiem.

Someone is building a lifesized Seikret cosplay despite the fact they’ve ‘never made anything like this before’ and after seeing the process, you can’t convince me this thing doesn’t live and breathe

Trine.k.n is creating a life-sized Seikret cosplay, sharing their journey on Instagram since October 2025. They documented the pattern-making process for the headpiece, including foam cutting and assembly. By December 2025, they revealed a wearable frame for the Seikret head, highlighting challenges like maintaining a lightweight design and proper weight distribution. Trine.k.n had no prior experience in crafting elaborate suits and noted their lack of experience in the project description. The latest update included the assembly of the neck, body, legs, and arms, with each scale carefully soldered and painted. The Seikret features a moveable head, neck, and jaw, with plans to add accessories and feathers.
