Ubisoft has rubbished claims that DRM is to blame for poor Assassin's Creed Origins PC performance, saying that the DRM has "no perceptible effect on game performance."

Assassin’s Creed Origins is an amazing game, which features the most gloriously detailed look at old-world Egypt you’ll find in any medium. It’s a delight to play as well, with systems upon system that allow for little touches that make the whole world feel alive - but there are reports from some PC gamers that the game just isn’t running well on their preferred system

Shadow of War uses the now-standard Denuvo Anti Tampering on PC. Increasingly, Denuvo’s taken less and less time for nefarious underworlders to bypass, but Shadow of War’s protection has been cracked in just 24 hours.

It's taken twenty two years - but an enterprising chap has reverse engineered the SEGA Saturn's DRM and cracked it open.

Oculus is backtracking on its commitment to DRM, and making the platform a little more open.

Notorious cracking group 3DMmay have cracked Denuvo - after pledging to stay away from the scene for a year.

Video game piracy could be a thing of the past in the near future, if anti-tampering software Denuvo stays ahead of the curve.

Metal Gear Solid V is out today - even on PC, two weeks ahead of its original launch. Of course, that means some people will want to pirate it - but they may be waiting quite some time for a crack.
