Persona 1 and 2 remakes are something Atlus will ‘probably eventually do’, which is great, but the PS2-era Shin Megami Tensei games are sitting right there

Kazuhisa Wada, the producer of the Persona series, hinted at the possibility of remakes for Persona 1 and 2, emphasizing the importance of cultural preservation in gaming. Atlus recently remade Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne, but fans are curious about the future of Digital Devil Saga and its sequel.

Fans are urging Atlus to prioritize remakes of Shin Megami Tensei 4, Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2, and Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon.

Mortal Kombat 1’s Denuvo Has Been Cracked

Mortal Kombat 1 was cracked by voices38, bypassing its Denuvo anti-tamper protection, nearly three years after its release for PC in September 2023. The previous Denuvo-protected title to be cracked was Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced. Warner Bros has previously removed Denuvo from Mortal Kombat 11 and other titles, raising questions about similar actions for Mortal Kombat 1. Other publishers, including Square Enix and Capcom, have also removed Denuvo from various titles. KRAFTON, NEOWIZ, Gearbox, IO Interactive, Bethesda, and Bandai Namco have also eliminated Denuvo from their games.
