For the past couple months, a lot of publishers were able to secure their PC games by using the latest version of the Denuvo anti-tamper tech. And while it has taken crackers a while, it appears that this latest version, which is now called Denuvo 6.0, has been cracked.
Earlier yesterday, a specific game cracking group was able to crack the latest version of Total War: Three Kingdoms. Total War: Three Kingdoms was updated one week ago to version 1.1.0 (which could mean that it has the latest version of Denuvo) and… as you may have guessed… the cracked version is based on version 1.1.0.
It will be interesting to see now whether SEGA will remove Denuvo from its game (this seems unlikely as the previous Total War games are still using it) and whether other publishers – like Bethesda has removed Denuvo from its cracked games in the past – will remove this controversial anti-tamper tech from their games.
It’s also interesting noting that this specific game cracking group claimed a while back that Denuvo was dead, meaning that it may have found a way to crack all of the Denuvo games (whether they are using an older or a newer version of it). Whether this is actually true remains to be seen as there are currently numerous games, using the latest version of Denuvo, that have not been cracked yet.
As always, we won’t allow links to pirated content and those that share such links will be banned (so yeah, don’t link to anything suspicious).

Where’s the proof?
the latest cracked games has breached denuvo itself no a workaround with a file denuvo.dll which contains a sentence “denuvo is dead”

The one and only….KIM
It’s basically a Bat Signal at this point.
I love waking up to phenomenal news. F*** this company in to oblivion.
Wohoo best news of the day. To hell with this Denuvo POS!
I salute em and those guys crack everything. Nothing is stopping Codex 😉
Now lets hope and see if that universal crack will kill it once and for all!
And im happy to say: I have stand by my word that I will NEVER buy a Denuvo game!
Viva la Codex and CPY!!

Sweet. Still hoping to see the demise of the entire company someday. In the meantime, looks good on them. Hope it costs them a ton of money.
lol!!
Actually Denuvo is making a ton of money
Please……. tell me you aren’t as stupid as you appear to be. Tell me you have the reading comprehension, greater than that of a 3rd grader. Jesus…. where do you morons come from?
To the surprise of no one.
Denuvo is like the cops that are still busting kids for weed even though the its going to be legal in a couple months. Wasting every time and money and their own lives for a purpose that doenst do anything.
Good analogy!
Not really.
So people trying to protect their games from pirates are like cops chasing after something that will be legal soon? SHODAN would be disappointed.
Con artist execs and Denuvo fanboys right now

Denuvo is actually very effective – currently games get cracked on day 1, but patches are rarely cracked. This means that anyone can download the beta quality day 1 release but if they want to play the finished quality patched release they have to buy the game. Its basically “beta quality demo for free, pay for the full finished game”.
If a game needs that much work post release it’s probably a poor game anyway. I shouldn’t be paying full price to beta test a game.
However, by the time many so-called AAA games are fully patched (typically several months, some times well over a year after release) the actual game will be available to purchase for a fraction of its original price.
Thats true for games that fail at retail, but the best (and most successful) games hold their price.
Incorrect. The vast overwhelming majority of so-called AAA games are available at greatly reduced prices not long after launch. You just need to shop in the right places and, no, I don’t mean G2A!
From memory, pretty much the only publisher that acts to keep their game prices artificially high for extended periods of time nowadays is Nintendo who are obviously irrelevant to this PC gaming debate. I suppose CoD is traditionally known for maintaining high prices at official sources but those games can easily be picked up far more cheaply elsewhere.
The only game that have held its price is sekiro and that doesn’t have Denuvo. Every damn game that had Denuvo you can get for $20 including season pass on “grey market”. Once again you are talking Hot Garbage 2.0. Mortal Kombat Premium you can get for $15-18 dollars USD since launch. Just Cause 4 you can get for $20 USD for quite some time now. If anything Denuvo destroys a games value. Right now you can get Wolfenstein: Young Tampons for $15-18, I watched the price dropped once they announced Denuvo. Hot Garbage, My friend. ..
Even that rare example to the contrary, Sekiro, can be routinely picked up from various sources at a 20% discount. It was available at a 26% discount just a couple of weeks ago. If one uses less reputable sources then I’m sure it can be picked up for even less.
f*k that feminist propaganda trash,wolfenstein deserves to die now.
wrong, codex goes back and cracks old games, fatal bullet and shadow of the tomb raider were recracked with the latest versions.

You’re talking nonsense. There is nothing “effective” about Denuvo. Pirates have all the time in the world to wait and they won’t buy it regardless. The only effectiveness of Denuvo is to spit in the face of paying costumers. You are talking hot garbage
Don’t talk about paying consumers because youre not of them. The vast majority of paying consumers don’t even know what DRM is. And you, you just a low life thief.
“…paying consumers don’t even know what DRM is.”
You say this like it’s a good thing. I thought you were a dumbass with your earlier reply to me, but wow man, you are next-level stupid.
Why don’t you go Fuq yourself with your strawman B.S… You didn’t even say anything of worth in that dogschitt of a post you just made. Why don’t you go see for yourself just how much of a paying customer i am.

EAT SCHITT…
Effective patches are being cracked, dream on.
Buy all Denuvo games at G2A. Hopefully they were acquired illegally, and costs the publisher money in refunds.
Yeah if I buy a Denuvo game that’s where I get it from. Haha, I got Just Cause 4 for $18 dollars, including season pass. Got Hitman 2 for $20 including season pass on release day. At this point I just do it for spite. Or I Pirate them…
I got mad max for 10 dollars there when it was brand new:)
Yeah Kinguin has it for 6.15, lowest 4.15. I’m sure it was very low on steam sales as well so either way you get a steal 🙂
Waiting for Anno 1800 to crack, that s*it is expensive in uplay and I am never going to buy it on EGS.
lol KIM

May the pirate ships now descend on the Denuvo plagued Mortal Kombat 11 and let the peasants rejoice!
Denuvo actually causes problems to our computer. We all should work on cracking it. Any game that has Denuvo in it is a resource hog.
+1
Excellent protection by Denuvo, almost 6 weeks or so.
Publishers are very happy if they get over 1 month protection
1 month lal
And they barely get 1 week of protection lmao
7 weeks is barely 1 week?
The initial cracking time can be long. But after that, it takes like half a day to crack the game.
And Denuvo doesn’t make a new version after every crack. They wait quite a while before they make a new version. So everybody after the first game on the new version that gets cracked is screwed over.
But if developers want to send 100,000$ on garbage, it’s up to them.
Publishers are very happy if they get over 1 month protection
team-crackers will always prevail 😀
hail to the kings!
dsogaming promoting theft sorry “Piracy”
Right. When a news channel reports a robbery, they are promoting that too right? Go play in traffic, r**ard.
Battlefront 4 is finally cracked as well.
Kim on suicide watch.
fitgirl for anyone who is curious 🙂
Nope, CODEX.
Fitgirl is just a repacker.
F1 2019 right now https://media3.giphy.com/media/hBn5xBlaUxyLu/giphy.gif
sharing pirated content and you will be banned…darkside of gaming…more like dark side of pu**ies.
Reason why it was cracked because the Ryzen 9 3900x made it MUCH quicker to brute force encryptions
