JUMP FORCE is a game that a lot of manga/anime fans are looking forward to. The game releases on February 15th, however its Ultimate Edition has been available for a while and we can confirm that the game will not be using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech.
This is the second PC release in a raw from Bandai Namco that does not use the controversial anti-tamper tech. While Ace Combat 7 was protected by Denuvo, both God Eater 3 and JUMP FORCE do not use it.
I don’t know the reasons behind this decision or whether this is a taste of things to come regarding Bandai Namco’s future releases. The point is that this anime/manga 3D brawler is only protected by Steam’s DRM and that’s something that will please all those that boycott Denuvo games.
Bandai Namco has been using Denuvo in a lot of its titles so it’s really refreshing witnessing new PC releases from this publisher without the anti-tamper tech. SEGA is also another publisher that has not used Denuvo in its latest PC games. Yakuza 0 is no longer protected by Denuvo and Yakuza Kiwami will most likely not be using it too.

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
