Denuvo Aims to Clear Its Name: Proving DRM Doesn't Impact Game Performance

Denuvo, the maker of anti-tamper software used by major PC games, plans to conduct independent testing to prove that its DRM technology does not negatively impact game performance. Over the years, Denuvo has faced criticism for allegedly causing issues such as increased loading times and decreased framerates. While some publishers have removed Denuvo from their games due to performance concerns, other tests have suggested that its removal does not improve performance significantly. To settle the debate, Denuvo will provide two versions of a game—one with Denuvo and one without—to trusted media outlets for side-by-side testing. The company aims to gain the trust of the gaming community and change the perception that it is a negative force in the industry.
