Total War: WARHAMMER 2 has just been released on the PC and even though Creative Assembly’s new strategy game is powered by the Denuvo anti-tamper tech, it has been cracked in just a day. As such, this is the fastest Denuvo-powered game that has been cracked, and shows that there is really no point using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech anymore.

Prior to it, TEKKEN 7 was the fastest cracked game powered by the Denuvo anti-tamper tech as it was cracked in just four days, followed by RiME and Resident Evil 7 that were cracked in five days.

In RiME’s case, Tequila Works removed the Denuvo anti-tamper tech once the game was cracked. Similarly, id Software, IO Interactive and BioWare removed Denuvo from DOOM, Hitman, ADR1FT and Mass Effect: Andromeda.

It will be interesting to see how SEGA and Creative Assembly will react to this, and whether they will remove the Denuvo anti-tamper tech in order to boost the game’s sales. For what it’s worth, and while Sonic Mania has been cracked, SEGA has not removed Denuvo from it. Not only that, but Sonic Forces will be also using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech.
