Denuvo responds to Resident Evil 7’s speedy crack

[Dohc-WP]

Earlier this week, we learned that cracking groups had already managed to circumvent Denuvo’s anti-tamper technology in Resident Evil 7, opening the game up to pirates less than a week after its final release. This was surprising as up until now, Denuvo has traditionally taken months to crack for new releases and some games have yet to be cracked at all. Given how quick the turnaround was this time, Denuvo has spoken out to reassure publishers that it its software can still be effective.

In an email sent to Eurogamer, Denuvo noted that the company has never tried to market itself as uncrackable but simply ‘hard to crack’. On top of that, so far “only one piracy group has been able to bypass it”.

“As always, we continue working to improve our solution to create security updates for upcoming Anti-Tamper versions. We will do the same with the learning from this bypass. It’s correct that the title in question was cracked some days after release. Given the fact that every unprotected title is cracked on the day of release – as well as every update of games – our solution made a difference for this title.”

Now that this version of Denuvo has been cracked, we can expect the next version to be a bit tougher. Perhaps the next big release to use Denuvo will stay protected for a bit longer than a week.

Yeah that was rather quick and i see CPY has also now cracked Battlefield 1.Read up on it one of the hardest games still trying to be cracked is Total War: Warhammer 40K. and then there are already whispers of WWE2K17 being cracked when it launches for Steam.

dont think wwe 2k titles use the denuvo drm system, i doubt 2k games uses denuvo in any of their titles. dishonoured 2 is most likely using a newer revision of the drm thats why it hasnt been cracked yet, and just cause 3 came out over a year and a half ago and that's also surprisingly not cracked yet.
