Many publishers remove DRM systems from their products after some time (this happened recently with Resident Evil Village and earlier with Triangle Strategy or Valkyrie Elysium). However, Bethesda apparently has a different opinion about anti-piracy protection.
It turns out that Bethesda, without any information on the subject, implemented the Denuvo system in Ghostwire: Tokyo. The publisher has included such a solution in the files with the latest game update (e.g. in the Steam distribution system).
The information has not been officially announced by the publisher, but it is independently confirmed by the editors of DSO Gaming. Such a change is controversial mainly because Denuvo often leads to framerate reduction due to CPU load in many titles using this solution (which has been shown in previous tests).
Perhaps the great success of Denuvo in 2022 encouraged Bethesda to make such a move. Last year, Denuvo was only compromised in one game.
It is worth remembering that Ghostwire: Tokyo is available from today on Xbox Series X|S (premiere in Xbox Game Pass).
