Funcom has released a brand new patch for Conan Exiles that removes the Denuvo anti-tamper tech. Conan Exiles came out on Steam Early Access in 2017. However, a DRM-free version of its Early Access build got leaked online in February 2017. PC gamers have been constantly asking for a Denuvo-free version after that leak, and after more than three years, Funcom has delivered it.
Alongside the removal of Denuvo from Conan Exiles, this latest update brings a number of performance improvements. For instance, it adds a number of optimization and database maintenance features. This may decrease the size of database files. Additionally, it introduces a number of server optimizations for code and logs. It also fixes a number of crashing issues.
Thankfully, the June 16th update also fixes two exploits. Going into more details, it fixes an issue where exploiters could override the rules of engagement of a server in order to cause unintended damage to structures. It also fixes an issue where certain pieces could be stacked.
It’s also worth noting that this patch implements a new Funcom Live Services system. This includes functionality for an in game Friends List and improvements to the Server Browser.
Lastly, this latest patch for Conan Exiles packs a number of fixes, balance tweaks and AI enhancements.

Another tumor gone
Not really. This is a rare case where the game still having denuvo would have been for a better cause.
Its a sad world when saying the sh*t I had yesterday was better than the sh*t today.
What cause ? LOL Denuvo has been proven to affect performance, creating slowdowns and many other BS. Not to mention it has been proven already that piracy doesnt affect sales, people who pirate are gonna pirate anyway, sometimes actually pirating creates an option where people buy the game cause they enjoy that much. Its all been proven with facts, protecting a sh@tty DRM is just sad, its useless and unwanted.
Enjoy the always on tencent DRM then. And your mods that are broken.
I’ll take denuvo any time over some newly implemented always-online tencent DRM that also breaks workshop mods.
You do know Denuvo hampers modding too, right?
Cool. I’m sure Denuvo just secured them a boatload of sales too, because Denuvo convinces people that your crappy game, is far better than it is. Denuvo, the ultimate influencer.
114 titles using Denuvo, 84 cracked. Or, 73.68 %.
Iff you want lose sales just put DRM DENUVO. Just a tip here for devs.
And many of those that uncracked are always online or MP ones.
So was the first Assasins Creed….. but games that are 100% online cant be cracked, but some of them arent actually fully online (history shows).
EDIT: BTW for example Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. 2 was not cracked for 3 years, and then they (developers) released a patch (offline patch) and it was cracked soon after that.
Too little too late. Funcom is a scummy company that can f**k off.
