Now here is something really interesting. Devil May Cry 5 has just been released on the PC and the game has already been cracked. What’s really interesting here, however, is that the cracked version uses a Denuvo-free executable file, meaning that it does not contain the Denuvo anti-tamper tech at all.
This is similar to the Final Fantasy XV crack release that was based on the Denuvo-free executable file that was used for the game’s demo. To be honest, I seriously don’t know who leaked this executable file as the demo for Devil May Cry 5 never came out on the PC platform.
Still, what’s really important here is that the cracked version, and contrary to most other Denuvo cracks we’ve seen in the past, does not feature the anti-tamper tech at all. According to reports, this executable file works fine and does not crash the game.
As always, we won’t allow links to pirated content and we’ll ban those that attempt such a thing. It will also be interesting to see how Capcom will react to this leak. The Japanese company has removed Denuvo from Resident Evil 7, however both Resident Evil 2 Remake and Devil May Cry 5 still use it.
Stay tuned for more as we’ll share our initial tech impressions for Devil May Cry 5 later today!

It’s a leaked denuvo free exe not a crack. The game still has denuvo.
No! It has SteamDRM and that DRM has to be cracked 😉
Wow. Maybe one of Capcom’s employees is not a fan of Denuvo cancer, so he leaked it. Either way, more blows to Denuvo is a good thing.
Are you just dense or don’t understand what “Denuvo-free” means?
Which part of my post didn’t you understand, my inbred friend?
Oh good, so you know that I’m your daddy.
None of it then. Fair enough
It has been cracked, just not by any ‘official’ Scene group. Since Denuvo wasn’t included in the leaked QA exe, all that was left to crack was Steam’s DRM.
it’s Don’t work after mission 2.
it works just fine if you disable network in game
I wonder if this was the doing of somebody who was given a review code… Unless somebody at Capcom is risking their job on the side? Meh

Review Code copies would also have come with Denuvo. No reason to have DRM Free copies for reviewers.

You never know… meh 😀
Why would they give Game Reviewers DRM free PC versions. It does not make sense.
Because the performance is better 😀 But who knows maybe Capcom is not as shady as some companies when it comes to that sorta stuff. Ether way I got the game for free from AMD.
don’t spread this news, now legit customers aren’t going to buy it and capcom will go back to making PC ports shetty again.
Buy it and replace the exe with the cracked one for no Denuvo shenanigans.

Still close to finish resident evil 2 remake so will play it later.
So now a DRM Free .exe file is considered a crack. When did that happen.
It’s not DRM free .exe , the .exe file still has SteamDRM 😉
do you seriously not know that steam itself is a drm?
Still purchased the game, and will always purchase Capcom games from now on. RE2 and DMC5 are proof enough that they are a fantastic developer now and I’m looking forward to what ever games they develop from here on out.
Hopefully it will be many more 9-10/10 games released from here on out.
Is it fun? DMC ?
It’s tricky, tr-tr-tricky, tricky. ?
I’d say it’s easily on par with DMC1, maybe even a bit better to me than the original. It’s very much worth purchasing for whatever price you want to get it at.
I got the deluxe edition for $51 off GMG and it has been worth it so far, and I don’t see it getting boring.
Just make sure you have a controller if you get it.
Oh man. Will look into this. Always loved the DMC universe. Thanks!
“RE2 and DMC5 are proof enough that they are a fantastic developer now”
Eh let’s see how their other franchises do next. Street Fighter 4 to 5 (both releases and dlc scams) were terrible for the consumer.
They’ve been doing great so far but don’t be quick to forget the BS they pulled just because their past few games were good.
Thats people on the internet in an nutshell though, a company is “Evil” untill they have some involvement with a good product, all of a sudden none of those past mistakes matter. It just shows how most posters online are just fickle kids.
Huh? Of course I’ll wait and see how their new stuff is; it’s more they’re going in the right direction lately than being completely terrible with everything they do, such as things like Street Fighter.
Not like RE2 and DMCV are the only examples of them changing that we have right now. MHW was welcomed from me, and Mega Man 11 was also a very good release too.
Not like I’m going to just purchase their games because it says Capcom as the developer/publisher. Nobody gets a free pass from me no matter how much they’re killing it.
SoyNutz’s comment made me consider pirating the game if buying it means being associated with the likes of him.
You say that like it will prove anything other than how much psychiatric help you need being this obsessed with somebody who comments on this website.
Not a Monster Hunter World fan?
I never played it, mostly because my computer was pretty terrible up until a few months ago. I also never owned any consoles that had it. Going to buy it when the expansion comes.
I do think it’s great for the people who like the series though. Another fantastic release from Capcom.
We should support those kind of games, single player games are becoming a rarity
Codex will soon do its magic again, though will not need a great spell in this case !!!
lol just lol
You did the wrong news btw ; https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1676142248
This is much more important.
Nothing can be said about the impact until there is a proper video comparing the same scenes.
Game without Denuvo runs faster with ~20fps+

Also that idiot Kaldaien said:
Cracked games are slower and less stable, so doubtful.
A guy who is supported of Denuvo, and also supported Sqaure Enix for not releasing patch for PC version or Nier: Automata.
A guy who calls everyone a pirate if that person don’t like Denuvo or any kind of DRM.
Typical Cancer that should be eliminated long ago…
A screenshot is a great way to compare performance…LOOOOOOOL!!!!!

Denuvo version XX.X.X will be always get cracked so why worry about it.
The last games out are really a complete fail and the devs must give us a real reason to waste our money.
There are great games that we buy because the good quality of the game, the companies are ignoring their customers and it is a bad move

while paying customers get game+denuvo, while non paying customers get game without denuvo..
last time i downloaded pirate games was 3 years ago.. then decided to be a full original games buyer.. and this drm is very annoying..
