Denuvo introduces a new version of its anti-tamper tech, Denuvo 5.0

A few days ago, we informed you about the defeat of Denuvo 4.8. However, it appears that the company was one step ahead and introduced a brand new version of it. Not only that, but this new version of the Denuvo anti-tamper tech is already being used in a game.

According to Revolt’s Voksi, Capcom has added this new version of the Denuvo anti-tamper tech in Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite. As Voksi claimed, this new version of the anti-tamper tech features significant changes, and he titled it as Denuvo 5.0.

To be honest, this is precisely what Denuvo has to do in order to protect all future titles; releasing a brand new version the moment the previous one gets cracked. As such, the company will be able to secure the first month/months sales of the games using it. After that, it will be up to the developers/publisher to either upgrade their Denuvo version or simply remove it.

At the time of writing, only Sonic Forces has been cracked. Assassin’s Creed Origins, Need for Speed Payback, Star Wars Battlefront 2, Injustice 2 and Star Ocean: The Last Hope HD Remaster still remain safe.

From what we know so far, Far Cry 5, FINAL FANTASY XII THE ZODIAC AGE and Dragon Ball FighterZ will be some of the upcoming titles that will be using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech. Our guess is that these three games will use this new version of Denuvo.

It will be interesting to see how long it will take to crack all games using the Denuvo 4.8 version, how long it will take to crack this new Denuvo 5.0 version, and whether developers will remove the previous version of the anti-tamper tech from their games!

  1. 3, 2, 1 Kim Kardashian West incoming with his predictably boring Denuvo trash talk!

    Then because there are usually so many comments here about Denuvo articles, he will claim that were all pirates, despite him contributing to 90% of the comments.

    What an idiot, still, it’s entertaining to watch someone make an utter fool of themselves!

      1. this guy is mad at me because I obliterated his entire worldview.

        So he puts me in the same category as trolls lmao.

  2. The fact that they keep rushing to improve the DRM proves that they give less of a crap for their consumers. They only see PC as a viable market, only because they want those first week/month sales, not because they care about the gamers and what they want. This is why you see Ubisoft getting devs to pour out PR vids about love and rainbows for PC gamers and it’s obviously growing them a legion opf PC fanboys to defend them now, as made evident by multiple forums and sites.

    1. money makes the world go around lol. Ofc they don’t give a crap about consumers. This is about being one step ahead against crackers and publisher paying them.

      1. Money is also the root of all evil… People or even companies who are willing to step on others in exchange for more income, deserve none.

        I’d also recommend you look up the term “social anomie”. A few authors have covered this phenomenon. Emile Durkheim, R.K. Merton, H. Becker, etc.

        1. so cruel someone trying to protect their work on which they put 5 years of their lives from the filthy loser and pirates on this site and other place so anti-consumer

          1. I find it incredibly ironic that an antipiracy measure encourages more piracy lol. You don’t punish everyone for a few bad apples man. That’s just plain wrong.

            Also, let’s all pretend that GOG doesn’t exist. By your very faulty logic they’d be bankrupt by now, since GOG games don’t have any sort of DRM whatsoever.

            Then again, I’m talking to a person who probably has a very boring life… Seriously, do something more productive than trying to troll people who comment on a serious topic.

      2. Thats the problem with world, everything is about money, but is not anymore about quality, like Iphones made in China.

    1. Denuvo 5 is confirmed to use up to 4 cores and 8 processess. Source – their idiot development team leader Adolf Haitler from Österreich.

        1. Finally, someone gets it.
          We have MC CPUS with virtual cores doing nothing, why?
          So companies can backdoor us and analyze the data for patterns etc. Just kidding folks, as long as my cores are being used by somebody, my investment is worth it. lol

      1. It’s ok brother, thanks for the support tho.

        Btw I am also an avid metal listener, so rock on friend!

      2. there are many bots on this site the pedo john has implemented to copy/paste comments like this and flag comments that doesn’t agrees his views

        1. It hasn’t occurred to you that John doesn’t have to use alt accounts to flag your comments so that he can delete them. He can delete whatever he wants whether it’s been flagged or not.

          That he doesn’t delete your comments calling him a pedo is proof that he’s being very patient with you. No?

          1. I am amazed you don’t have him on block by now. I blocked Kim on his second comment I saw months ago.

        2. Those are random SPAM bots/users. Stop blaming JOHN for all this, without any obvious reason.

          Trust me, this copy/paste trend has been going on since long here on DISQUS. I’ve had my entire comment text copied on multiple occasions as well.

          Don’t know why these bots copy other people’s comments, but this is getting pretty annoying for all to us.

  4. Denuvo along with Game Developers/publishers are getting paranoid, each time a previous version of their software gets bypassed/cracked.

    This is just a sort of ‘Panic Mode’ response to protect the Weekly/Monthly game sales, as much as they can, without caring much about the outcome, their consumers, and the like.

    It seems the Denuvo team is well prepared beforehand, and they have done their homework as well, because as soon the anti-tamper version gets a scene crack/bypass, they apply another LAYER on top of it.

    Version 5.1/5.2/5.x………cometh.
    ..

  5. ahahahahha denuvo bait f`ker aka john pedo is back at it again giving his piracy insite from crackwatch lol

    1. It’s news, not propaganda.
      And if John makes money out it, good.
      He has to make some kind of living off his work.
      Do you Patreon the site for their journalism? (donate money)

      1. Bub & Bob is saying I’m trolling lmao.

        I’ve never called John in his past 3 Denuvo articles, because he is adding new information about it. I’m only calling him out when he’s announcing a new game gets cracked every freaking time. This is a gaming site not a low key piracy news network. If I wanted pirate news I would go to forums.

        Clickbaity Denuvo articles imo are just the same as the Buzzfeed trash you see on your news stories. In which they generate revenue off excited readers. If he wants to keep posting new articles on cracks okay, but he needs to come out of the closet and say he is either Anti DRM or pro pirate.

        Trying to keep a neutral stance while at the same time announcing everytime a game is cracked is re*t*rded. You aren’t fooling anyone.

  6. Denuvo 5 is confirmed to use up to 4 cores and 8 processess. Source – their idiot development team leader Adolf Haitler from Österreich.

  7. The game is a fail itself and Capcom want to “protect it” instead of leaving their first day DLC bullsh!t… Yeah, that surely will boost sales.

  8. Investors care about the money they’ll make back, has that never even once occured to you?.

    Investing into a goldmine, to reap even more money is something people will jump at.

    Come on, look at the bitcoin craze and what it’s doing to the GPU sector, it’s not that hard to see that people want a shitload of money for less work.

  9. New version of our groundbreaking and breathtaking industry leading anti-piracy software will provide you with up to 100% CPU utilization… You’re welcome 🙂

  10. We massively should write to game publishers via emails, on forums, social networks that we refuse to buy the game until DRM is removed.
