Denuvo gets its biggest blow yet as pirates have now run out of Denuvo games to crack as of April 2026. All non-VR games are bypassed using Hypervisor. Will countermeasures do something?
Yes, and all that to bypass, not remove, a protection mechanism that runs 100% in user space with no additional privileges. It really would be impressive if it wasn’t so horrible for consumer rights and preservation.
Playing it on a Windows VM on Linux with your GPU passed through is probably the safest way to play these hypervisor bypass games.
So, an OS that runs a HV that runs a HV that runs an OS that runs a translator that translates a windows-game to the original OS.
If you had told me that absurd shit 30yrs ago I would have laughed at you.
