Sid Meier’s Civilization VII will use the Denuvo anti-tamper tech

2K Games and Firaxis Games have updated the Steam store page for Sid Meier’s Civilization VII, revealing that the game will use Denuvo. This new Civ game will come out in February 2025. So, we at least know months before its release that it will have it.

Sid Meier’s Civilization VII is a 4X strategy game developed by the legendary team at Firaxis Games, developers of the Civilization and XCOM franchises.

In this game, you’ll take on the role of a famous leader from history. You’ll build your civilization by creating cities, constructing amazing landmarks, and expanding your land. You can also choose to conquer or work with other civilizations to become more powerful,. Plus, you’ll explore new, uncharted territories as you aim for greatness.

Earlier this month, Firaxis revealed that Civ 7 will not be using the 2K launcher. Not only that, but the devs have confirmed that you won’t need a 2K account for offline play. For online play, though, you’ll need to use a 2K account. Still, it’s at least good to know that the game won’t force you to create a 2K account.

For those wondering, the devs haven’t shared any PC system requirements as of yet. Since the game won’t be out this year, we can assume that we’ll get them in December 2024 or in January 2025.

It will be interesting to see when – and if – 2K Games will remove Denuvo from Civ 7. Will it be 3 or 6 months after its release? Place your bets, everyone.

Stay tuned for more!

  1. I never touch Civ until it's finished anyways, which tends to be 3 or 4 years after release, and Denuvo will likely be long gone by then.

    I'm done waiting for games to drop Denuvo to buy them. I'll wait for games to drop Denuvo to download a repack, and if they don't drop it? Oh well, my backlog isn't getting any shorter.

    Tired of rewarding companies for this bulls***.

  2. Yeah, then again Space Marine 2 in reality is just a Space Marine 1.5 with QoL and Online Play.

  3. Wheres al-qaeda when you need them? Of all the places they could attack, why not go to denuvo headquarters, I hear they burn a koran every day for funsies

    1. OR eu who is so darn energy fixated… i mean every client abuses more energy while playing because of that additional drm overhead

  4. You know how many sales they'll lose because of this???!
    Yeah, maybe maximum 2%, the other 49/50 players don't even know that this exists.

    1. "But games are very expensive to make and working with new game Engines is a lot tougher"
