Is there any reason why there don’t seem to be any releases of Persona 5 for the PC? Anything I find is either Nintendo Switch or PS3 packaged alongside emulators. Does it really come down to the dramatic Denuvo cracker not bothering to have a go at this one?

    There is.

    Persona 5 Royal has Denuvo Anti Cheat. A immensely hard anti cheat to crack.

    The only public cracker that is able to crack Denuvo, refuses to crack Anime-games. Thus it’ll take a long while before it gets cracked.

      Aha. There’s the context. Thank you.

      I took a long break from pirating, but I feel like 10 years ago Denuvo meant nothing and releases were still cracked right away. Any ideas as to what changed that it all comes down to one megalomaniac?

        Denuvo these days is ridiculously hard to crack, the only people good enough usually would rather get a job at Denuvo because its so hard you have to be insane to do it for free. There was also some guy doing denuvo cracks for only football manager games but they retired like 3 months ago.

        Denuvo probably limits it from its full potential, but the game still runs really well, even on older hardware. Granted, P5R isn’t a brand new title but a port of an older one so that prob helps
