Denuvo 5.2 anti-tamper tech, used in newer games, has already been cracked

Football Manager 2019 has just been released and it appears to be using the newest version of the Denuvo anti-tamper tech. And in just five days, a new scene group was able to crack this latest version of Denuvo (which is called Denuvo 5.2).

From what we know so far, The Quiet Man and Football Manager 2019 are the only games that are using Denuvo 5.2. Our guess is that Hitman 2 and Battlefield 5 will be also using it (though we are not certain yet) and Just Cause 4 may use an even newer version (provided Denuvo ups its game).

In case you are wondering, Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey, FIFA 19, Monster Hunter World, Shadow of The Tomb Raider and Dragon Quest XI have been using Denuvo 4.9. So yeah, it’s pretty weird witnessing the latest version of Denuvo being cracked while there are still uncracked games using its previous version.

All in all, it’s pretty exciting witnessing the battle between crackers and Denuvo. It’s also worth noting that this new scene group is using GOG’s FCKDRM initiative for its name. Obviously the guys behind it have nothing in common with GOG, however it’s a pretty clever homage to it (though I’m not sure whether this will backfire on them).

As always, we won’t allow links to pirated content and those that share such links will be banned.

  1. Probably just a workaround hidden within the code. If not, all of the games you stated would be cracked already.

    The implementation plays a huge role too tho.

  2. The issue is…

    You just cant win against the community.. You can postpone it but at the end of the day , every DRM goes down

      1. publishers even try their best to cut that 15 percent which sony, microsoft and valve take from their sales. at such scales even 1 percent would be something that will make publishers completely shift their policy and now you’re asking to get games for half of that price which 15 percent of it is already gone, not happening, never.

      2. And companies shouldn’t make billions in profit every year whilst people get by on minimum wage, struggling to pay bills, whilst other’s earn millions per year, living in houses that are size of hotels, whilst owning multiple sports cars.

        But….

  3. nice fcking idiots, i’ve been waiting for monster hunter world crack for months and they give this trash that is as irrelevant as racing games that come every year. fcking unbelievable.

      1. not when i have cheat engine and if you’re wondering, yes, i use my neighbor’s wifi and i have shet ton of adblocks. i also wear my older brother underwear and have a jar of shekels under my bed.

  4. “it’s pretty weird witnessing the latest version of Denuvo being cracked while there are still uncracked games using its previous version.”

    The reason for that is clear john, soul calibur or whatever its name is…..and tekken were cracked pretty fast. So the more complex the game the more triggers it has meaning its harder to crack because it cant be tested for all millions of triggers that can pop up anywhere in a open world game.

      1. Different era, different Denuvo version, anyway, even those times, the proper crack for those two games came after longtime, the day one cracks were not 100% stable, because of… a lot of triggers

      2. Old denuvo version that didnt have millions of triggers and both of those games were botched, mad max had crashes while opening the map, mgs v crashed in a specific mission and could not be finished. Then baldman came and removed every trigger manually instead of emulating denuvo like cpy did.

        1. You are just expeculating things, like saying games like Tekken are not complex enough so it is easier to crack. Some “simple” games took long enough to crack

  5. FCK Yeah one more to take down that abomination POS Denuvo!
    Here Celebrating d/l Fitgirls Mega Men 11. FCK Sega and everyone using this crap DRM!

  6. They need to give up and die already!
    Once a anti-tamper tech is cracked…it days are numbered! No matter what they do, the architecture is already compromised!

    1. I’m in contact with creators of denuvo and i keep donating big money to them so they can research and come up with new ways to stop filthy virgin pirates.
