"New DRM Update Renders Monster Hunter Rise Unplayable on Steam Deck"
Capcom's latest update for Monster Hunter Rise on Steam has caused compatibility issues with the Steam Deck, with users attributing the problem to the addition of Enigma Protector, a new DRM software. The update removed Denuvo but introduced Enigma Protector, leading to performance issues and negative reviews from players. This change follows a similar issue with Resident Evil: Revelations, prompting Capcom to investigate the reported problems. The publisher has been incorporating Enigma Protector into its back catalog on Steam, potentially as a measure to restrict third-party mods in PC games.
