Hackers have reportedly bypassed Denuvo's protection in all games
The gaming community is reporting an event that was considered impossible until recently: as of April 27, 2026, according to enthusiasts, there are no games protected by Denuvo left that have not been cracked.
According to sources, a key role in this was played by a bypass via the hypervisor, which is considered complex and potentially dangerous for system security.
This is reported by The Gamer.
Among the latest "cracked" titles are Dragon’s Dogma 2, Marvel’s Midnight Suns, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Far Cry 5, as well as EA sports releases, including Madden NFL 24, Madden NFL 25, EA Sports FC 24, and EA Sports FC 25.
Nevertheless, the hackers were still unable to completely remove Denuvo. A number of releases were cracked primarily through the hypervisor. This is a method in which the game runs not directly in Windows, but within a low-level virtual layer that sits below the OS and can spoof the responses used by DRM checks.
Denuvo continues to believe that everything is working properly, even though the protection is effectively disabled. At the same time, this approach is considered risky, as it requires disabling the system’s security features (in particular, Secure Boot) and running unverified code at a level where it gains full access to the system.
It is noteworthy that amid widespread bypasses, an increasing number of publishers have begun to gradually abandon Denuvo. For instance, any mention of Denuvo has disappeared from the Steam description of the upcoming arcade racer Star Wars: Galactic Racer, and players are convinced this is no mere coincidence.
Denuvo has a poor reputation among gamers due to potential performance drops in games (FPS drops, stuttering), increased CPU load, and suspicions of accelerated SSD wear caused by frequent data writing. Although the developers themselves deny this, tests confirm the issues, especially on weaker PCs.
