Now here is something cool. Capcom has just issued a new update for Resident Evil Village that removes the Denuvo anti-tamper tech from it.
Capcom has also removed Denuvo from the game’s Steam store page. As such, we are certain that this removal was intentional, and not accidental.
Resident Evil Village came out in May 2021. In other words, it took Capcom almost two years in order to remove it. Still, this is great news for all those that wanted to play it (but boycotted it due to Denuvo). Furthermore, PC gamers can now benchmark this new version in order to see whether Denuvo affected its overall performance.
To be honest, though, we are not surprised by the removal of Denuvo. After all, Capcom has removed it from most of its older titles. For example, Resident Evil 2 Remake, Resident Evil 3 Remake, Devil May Cry 5 and Monster Hunter World no longer have it.
Have fun!

These Japanese are showing major understanding here. They are making a move that means nothing to them but is intending to target a group. It’s very smart and it’s about engendering good faith. I suggest rewarding them so they do it again in the future if you have the means and desire. This was a good move and they are move conscious than these woke hostages in the west .
Reward them for what exactly? You don’t know wtf you are talking about. You wanna talk about woke. Japan is on a fast track to exceed the west when it comes to ‘woke’. Oh you think because they let you play jiggly characters that they are your savior? Let me explain something to you: it’s over, woke has won. It’s everywhere, there is nowhere to run. GLOBALISM has won. So why don’t you reward the Japanese for making a good game which when it comes to PC titles they don’t know WTF they are doing. They are some of the most stubborn individuals. So we should reward them for removing cancer on a cancer platform. See this is why nothing ever changes because you’re brains in the west are tiny, in the East they are just slaves to tradition, corruption and ‘duty’. In the west y’all are slaves to a time that will never return. So any idiot, promised you anything or give you something small you gobble it up and ready to ride for this idiot. Westerners are the perfect example of “successful slaves with a mortgage and a car note”.
They should never be rewarded for removing Denuvo, it shouldn’t be there in the first place. They are telling you that they don’t care, because they know you’re gonna buy and lick their boots like the lap dog that you are. Dude, you’re disgusting for suggesting what you just did. You will always be a slave and so will you’re bloodline. How many boosters are you on now, 15th?.. gtfo with this nonsense. Fuq crapcom, Fuq Ubisoft, Fuq EA, Fuq Enix & fuq any company that gives Denuvo software engineers a free lunch. There is literally ZERO NEED FOR DRM. It prevents nothing and angers many. But this could’ve been stopped if people would just stop themselves from FOMO!
yep i’m just gonna pirate away.
Bro at least learn grammar before talking about how stupid everyone else is
ignore this guy, literally he is always bit*** about something in the comment section but is still using windows 7 to this day lol
So… You’re a liar. And to add cherry on too none of what you said disprove anything that i said. Hmmm… Cry more

So… You’re a liar. ? To add cherry on top, none of what you said disprove anything that i said. Hmmm…? Cry more? Because I don’t know whether or not me being Windows 7, Vista, 8, 8.1, 10 or 11 have to do with any of this. I’ve been on windows 10 since it was released. I’ve never championed for any version of windows. Now we know you are a habitual liar. You should shut the FUQ up before I slap you with my wallet!

i can be using windows xp and show u screenshot of windows 11 like this lol, what a clown you are. You try to sound like most rational and sane person in the comment section every time and yet this is the evidence ur showing me. A year or 2 ago you said something along the lines of windows 10 sucks blah blah i will be forever on GOG and windows 7 blah blah.
There is something seriously wrong with this guy. I don’t mean it as an insult, but he’s not mentally all the way there.
Go Fuq your mother in a n English class. Phaggot!
This guy is super weird. If you look at his comments for a while you’ll realize something is wrong with him.
Well said buddy ?
The more vaccine Poison the retarded sheeps take, the less braincells they have left!
And only a Idiot would even think about taken that crap to begin with!
The Globalist extreme left garbage have no problem with imposing their agenda, as most ppl are dumb as f*k ?
I think I have some sorta PTSD (not to take that lightly) or something similar as a result of the PLANDEMIC. Because atleast 3x a week a rant to my wife about this garbage world and where it’s headed. And the fact that THE PEOPLE JUST LET IT HAPPEN. Imagine taking vaccine poison just to go back to a MINIMUM WAGE JOB in order to feed your family. Not even a career or something substantial. But to work at a poisonous fast food joint.
What kinda globalists twilight gender vaccinated dysphoric world did I wake up in. After the PLANDEMIC I know what happened to all these civilizations that talks about slavery, Holocausts & people taking their land. I was talking to a native dude about this and I said, bruh this is your people’s fault. YOU DIDN’T FIGHT HARD ENOUGH. Same thing goes for slavery. The PLANDEMIC has shown me how these things happened. The slaver, the land stealer and the Holocauster all did their jobs, the enslaved, the one that lost his land and Holocaustee didn’t do their jobs. This is what happens when you rely on others to do the right thing. Now all these groups are walking around playing victims Olympics.
What they should’ve done was massacred every single person that approached them with rubbish. Instead they are all off having peace talks, debates and trying to reason with crazy individuals that clearly do not give a fuq about your well being
Exactly, but people just look the other way and belive all propaganda and lies, the mainstream media tells them!
Put some fear into the sheeps, and the follow you to the gallow. So scared the could piss themselfs, the stupid f*kers. No reason and critical thinking exist. It’s sad to see how the world gone to hell!
The movie – They Live – by genious Carpenter, never been more real. But atleast some are waking up, but much to few!
But the globalist pigs agenda are starting to crack and with time it Hopefully will end, this tyranny. If the paedohiles cabal dont start WW3 before it. The surely do all they can to bring Putin down. But all they do is backfireing!
Russia is growing stronger by the day and you in US and we here i. Europe have to pay the price. Disguting as hell. Hope the corrupt Zelensky pig will het it as the rest of the filth that puppet him, like the frikking marionette he really are
F*k NWO and may all these extreme left marxist garbage blown to hell!
Denuvo is a subscription service, they just realized it’s not worth it to pay more money for Denuvo devs, it’s not charity. If you want to reward them, go for it, i will probably pirate this game.
square enix and sega does not so no.
Get lost you friKKing RE**RD!!
all those that wanted to play it (but boycotted it due to Denuvo)…. will now download it for free. It would be naive to think otherwise.
And so they should download it for free. The game have been cracked a VERY VERY LONG TIME anyways. So it doesn’t matter, game was released On May 7th, 2021 & Torrent has been up since July 10th, 2021.
The crack version didn’t get the expansions and the FSR update.
Why would anyone choose to use FSR? Unless they have a bad GPU.
I just said that the 2021 cracked version didn’t have the FSR updates. I didn’t say anything about using FSR.
Yeah, but you listed it like it was a positive similar to the expansion.
You how I’ve been asking this question for a very long time. I believe it the people that wanna say they are playing in 4k @60 fps in very demanding newer titles. They think it’s a flex. When in theory they are playing at 720p or 900p at best. Haha, I don’t know what type of logic these fake frames chasers are on about. But I let them be. Because a wise man once said, “The fool & his fake frames will NEVER part”.
You think people who pirate the game gives a damn about DLCs and FSR? Haha, especially fake frames. You can’t be this delusional? Hardcore pirates consume games like termites do wood. They don’t care, it’s next and next. And the ones that do care have the patience to wait and play CSGO in the meantime, till the final release hits.
Unhinged response to an information based comment.
That was just an unstable mess hence no patches, from that build!
Been waiting for this and as they removed the abomination I guess their will be no more DLC!
Finaly beying able to play it, and a Big fuck you to all Idiots, that buys any game with this Denuvo garbage!

Agreed, its bloatware that does the gamer nothing good at all – Only potential headaches when sadly all too often overzealously added.
Where is my payment from the devs for the additional hardware needed to run that bloat? Or the lower price for a product that’s not running as well as it should have been without? Or payment for the additional power needed for the needless overhead of realtime decryption when the game is running?
I love where your head is at. Next time just don’t give them any money. They don’t care about you bro, they just want profits. The pirates will never go through the disrespect that you did.
Since you feel that way will you come over and mow my lawn for free ….. Or do you just want to profit from your work ???
Of course they want profits, just like you want to get paid for your own work …..
Sure I’ll come over and mow your lawn but the next 60% of it you’ll have to use this redeem code “DykRyder23” in order for me to finish the rest. After that I will provide updates to the mowing I was suppose to do in one sitting over the next 2+ years. Then when I’m finally done, I will do I Law Of The Year edition for you at full price. In 5 years I will remaster your lawn but I may or may not patch up the parts I messed up on. You can get bet that after a decade I will fully remake your lawn which will present more flaws than what I left you with before.
Look man, the difference is I do my job, moron. If I don’t do it correctly I don’t get paid or hired again. These corporations don’t do their jobs and when they do, it’s never completed. The only thing more stupid than you are your examples. I don’t know why you constantly respond to the things I post, with your illogical self.
People who are going to unethically steal are going to steal whether there is DRM or not …. Which is exactly why DRM is never going to go away
The ONLY way DRM goes away is if people stop stealing and that’s never going to happen …. Not using DRM is like not putting locks on your doors to keep thieves out of your home ….. You can bet your a*s that the people that steal games have locks on their doors and would go ballistic if someone stole their computer or game console yet they can’t understand why game developers want to keep their property from being stolen …. They have a false sense of Entitlement
A sense of entitlement, poor reasoning skills, backwards thinking to somehow justify wrongdoing (like most criminals), and low IQ’s.
Two years this cancer was on there, and we’re supposed to clap for them like seals for removing it? Leave it on there for all I care. I don’t have the willpower of a toddler.
“Still, this is great news for all those that wanted to play it (but boycotted it due to Denuvo).”
Is it though? It’s great news that now, two full years later, they can play a game that should never have had this garbage in it in the first place, just because they aren’t lemmings and have standards? This is great news?
Great news would be hearing the dissolution of Irdeto and the punting of Denuvo and anything related to it, straight into the heart of the sun. That would be “great news”.
6 month to one year is common practice by Capcom scums!
If there was no DLC it would have been removed as said, long ago!
Seems most people lack the intelligence to tie Denuvo removal with a newer game release.
CAPCOM is now focused on Resident Evil 4 Remake sales, any extra sales coming from Village Denuvo removal are welcome now.
If CAPCOM was serious about getting rid of Denuvo, they wouldn’t be using it on newer game releases, is all about sales and marketing.
Of course there is. I ment common practice seems to be that time I said from them. If they dident do DLC, that abomination would been removed earlier from the game!
As they pay for say 6 month to a year, then they recon any more licence would cost them more, then they are selling!
Capcom is as the rest who uses it – anticonsumer money hungry f*kers, that doesent give a sh*t about us.
Thats why I never get trash like them my money. Pirate is the only way!
Denuvo is a service, some companies decide it’s not worth to keep paying forever, like Capcom.
Who cares at this point?
Ur mom.
My mom isn’t from a third world country though. If she did play video games, she would be able to afford your salary ($60)
Is her OF still free?
Yes, enjoy her saggy t*ts.
I wonder how much she regrets her abortion (you).
Do you know what abortion means? I’m still here.
I think you’re too dumb to type what you actually mean.
Do you know what an insult means? Let me help you:

DLCs are only for Gold Edition which is a seperate game version that still has Denuvo
LOL yeah what a re**rd!
Nope you’re wrong, Gold Edition is just latest version + all content not a standalone version of the game
Normal version is outdated, and abandoned by Capcom, it also doesn’t have DLCs, and new camera modes.
Gold Edition is different and the newest version, and most updated.
He is obviously a total moron!
How many booster are you on R**ard!
Just GTFO Idiot!
It is appreciated, John.
I hope no one buys and everyone pirates. It’s now been proven that piracy is the only way to preserve games. PC & Piracy = Preservation. I saved so much money because of Denuvo and when I finally pirate them I can’t even sit through the first 15 minutes. Because the games are so damn terrible. I tried playing RE7 & that was a terrible fest. Just a waste of hard earned money.
People should only buy DRM-Free games and pirate the ones that have DRM. Especially companies like Ubisoft that have 5 levels of DRM. Why on earth would you buy that? Why would you reward a company that steals your right to own something you paid for? Why are most of you so fuqin Dumb?.. Is your money burning your pockets that damn much.
get anti-depressants asap you depressed m*fo
Dude RE7 was great, and like, the whole world agrees lmao
i didnt like the aiming, i kept on missing and capcom has kept this aiming system in every resident evil game after that.
Then git gud lol. I played 7, 8, and the DLC for 8 with no issue. Granted I did play 7 in PSVR. And for 8 if you’re using controller there’s a specific setting that needs to be completely disabled to make the camera movement/aiming feel “normal.” Otherwise, there’s an acceleration curve to the movement.
No. And the whole world is wrong on so many topics like why Fortnite is successful and why Horizon Zero Dawn is considered a masterpiece or why Cardi B is still selling music, you lost at the moment you helped your point with the “whole world agrees” argument
His argument is dumb, true, but so is true the fact that RE7 is good.
Didn’t like it, felt like a high budget generic 1st person horror game, nothing else, but if you like it good for you
?
RE7 was a generic horror game pretending to be RE.
You never had the right to own any software unless it is Open Source ….. All you ever have gotten was a license to use that software …. That’s been true for over 40 years, just go read the license you agreed to when you installed the software even if that software was from 1985
You are trying to claim a right you’ve never ever had ….. All it shows is your ignorance of contract law
These types of articles have such little newsworthiness. I’m not going to tell you how to run your site, but reporting on every game that removed Denuvo is really scraping the barrel.
I hope Irdeto is paying you well.
True, just a little browsing a repack site is all it takes to know.
I was wondering what that update was.
Crapcom once stated they’d be bringing this game’s PS4-exclusive VR mode to the PC version but it never happened.
That POS abomination would have been removed after 6 month to a year – IF – there was No DLC!
Now I finaly can play the latest.version, as the cracked one was unstable as hell, hence no patches/updates from Capcom!
Hope the damn game is in better shape now
And as Allways – Big f*k you Capcom, for using that Abomination!
This is really interesting, You’re a very skilled blogger. I’ve joined your feed and look forward to seeking more of your magnificent post. Also, I’ve shared your site in my social networks!
seems clear that capcom is removing denuvo when the latest version of their franchise is out.
Unlike ubisoft that wont release it from any previous version and will price 6 year old far cry and asscreed games nearly full price because they see you as money bags.
thankfully all cracked, but yeah ridiculous, same ayhols who copyright 500+ year old books because of typesetting etc or the trnzywood copyright abusers.
Or they don’t want to show people how much hw resources their implementation of denuvo + proctect VM eats together because the risk of peeps boycoting? Most of the UBI titles since they began with that have ran like shat for its gfx / complexity.
havent gotten around to this one yet, got it in a recent sale. looking forward to playing through it a bit more now.

lmao
Damn! I wonder how many people have put you on ignore?
I would say 50-60 percent of active users here (maybe more).
“why do they hate me so…”
Indeed, I tried so hard to be nice to these bright and interesting gentlemen. It saddens me not to be able to see their comments.
Just log off and you can read their comments, forever…
Pay me first
not needed to log out, a specific browser’s older version allows it due to a bug. Won’t reveal it to this POS though, let him log out like an idiot.
If only they weren’t pozzed I’d buy the game now.
naturally like your web site however you need to take a look at the spelling on several of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I find it very bothersome to tell the truth on the other hand I will surely come again again.
I had the gratis version and can’t really remember it, played it all the way through and I guess the giant “woman” and “daughters” is the only part I remember. The new versions of RE just don’t have as much oomph to me, not too memorable, overrated. RE past RE4 is just Meh, blah looks like a UE generic with some past nostalgia lore hung on it. I mean 5-6 are like where Dead Space went with DS3, all EA’d up. RE4 was the last great one imo. Can’t wait for the free version to come out any time now.
Oh and De-of, Nuvo-New, right in the name this is for the critical early months of a release where these major games make the vast majority of their money. Unless they have major DLC already planned not worth it past a few months. Jubisoft AC fake history games have always had 1-2 major DLC to sell later on so they kept denuvo but of course past a couple years no reason to keep it other than well… jubigreedsters.
But that whole thing about “protect the initial first couple weeks/whenever”. Can and never been proven to be true or false. It’s just a silly fall back they use that can’t be quantified in any away. It’s the silliest metrics ever. The best part of all of it though, is to hear others repeat that rhetoric. People at Denuvo are just laughing their butts off, because they know that they provide a placebo product and get paid heavily for it. Must be nice ?????
I don’t know if Denuvo is on RE4r or not, but they should just take it off anyway and please the customers. They’ve already made WAY over quota. They shouldn’t care about torrent losses at this point.
I appreciate you sharing this blog post. Thanks Again. Cool.
I am a little slow on the uptake; I read the headline and the first paragraph and I was still trying to remember which character or monster type was Denuvo. Was it the giant bug guy? No, wait, that was RE4. Fish guy?
