    Not anymore, Hogwarts Legacy was just cracked, almost a year after release, but EMPRESS is only one person, there are several games releasing with denuvo every year, my friend is still waiting for a crack to Stranded Alien Dawn but since it’s a smaller game it’s not even on their radar.

    Most denuvo games you are seeing on sites, if you go to the crackwatch twitter account, you’ll see it’s just the devs themselves removing denuvo since they probably didn’t want to renew the contract for a game that already sold for an entire year.

      Hogwarts Legacy was cracked ages ago. It was cracked in under a month.

        Then I was fooled by a new repack, doesn’t change the fact that the other recent denuvo games are still uncracked like Dead Space Remake, Resident Evil 4, Star Ocean Second Story R, Wild Hearts, Hi-Fi Rush, etc, it’s over, they won.

          Nah, they haven’t won. All they’ve done is make people wait till they’re cracked, which they will be. Most people aren’t going to buy the games just because they’re not immediately cracked, they’ll just wait.

          Worth noting that RE:4 was cracked day of release.

          Doomerism is bad in all forms, do not give up

      Hogwarts legacy was cracked in under a week…

      it’s true that empress is unreliable and basically the only source of cracks, but when she does do it, it doesn’t take long.
