Overclockers.ru: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle появилась на на торрентах за несколько дней до релиза

The game "Indiana Jones and the Great Circle" experienced a piracy incident shortly before its official release, with early access owners inadvertently leaking a complete version. Although the developers did not use Denuvo DRM, the game was protected by an internal Steam mechanism that was eventually bypassed by hackers. The online performance on Steam has been disappointing, with a peak of just over 2,196 concurrent players. The game has received a 92% positive rating on Steam and an average score of 86 on Metacritic. The official launch is set for December 9, 2024.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 появится на торрентах в день релиза? В игре нет защиты Denuvo

On November 20, GSC Game World will release S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, which will not include Denuvo anti-piracy protection and will be available on the GOG digital store without DRM. It is expected that pirated versions of the game will appear on torrent sites within hours of its release. The minimum system requirements for the game are Windows 10, Intel Core i5-6600K or AMD Ryzen 5 1600, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX 580, 8 GB RAM, and 150 GB disk space (SSD recommended). The recommended requirements are Windows 10/11, Intel Core i7-9700K or AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super or AMD RX 5700 XT, 16 GB RAM, and 150 GB disk space (SSD required). Initial impressions from major publications and gaming expos are positive, highlighting the game's visual fidelity, mechanics, NPC intelligence, nonlinear quests, and expansive map, though some concerns were raised about a lengthy introduction and technical glitches. Journalists were not allowed to record gameplay footage, which has led to apprehensions about the unfiltered gameplay experience.

Overclockers.ru: На торрент-трекерах появился февральский билд Dragon’s Dogma 2 без защиты Denuvo

A debug build of Assassin's Creed: Mirage has been leaked online, lacking Denuvo protection and initially reported to not include downloadable content (DLC), although installation guides for additional content later appeared on torrent trackers. Additionally, a debug build of Dragon's Dogma 2, identified as version 1.0.0.1 and dated February 27, 2024, has also leaked. This build predates the official launch on March 22, 2024, and lacks the day-one patch, leading to suboptimal performance. Both leaked builds do not include Denuvo protection, and Capcom has been removing Denuvo from its titles.

Metaphor: ReFantazio cracked via its Denuvo-free demo file

Metaphor: ReFantazio, a new role-playing game from ATLUS under SEGA, features Denuvo anti-tamper technology in its PC version, while the demo released previously did not include this protection. Players have exploited the demo's executable to access the full game without restrictions. The pirated version of the game may offer a better experience without Denuvo's limitations, although the initial pirated release faced gameplay issues that have since been resolved. ATLUS has also improved the performance of both the final and demo versions of the game through updates. The situation raises questions about the performance differences between the pirated and retail versions and suggests that SEGA might reconsider its use of Denuvo in the future.
