It seems that Bethesda have silently Denuvo security system removed from the PC version of Ghostwire Tokyobut without publicizing the issue, as it was only discovered through changes to the Steam database, as reported by SteamDB.
The relationship between the Tango GameWorks game and the Denuvo anti-tamper system continues to be rather bizarre: Bethesda had strangely inserted it a year after its release, which is decidedly unusual for a security system that is typically used to protect games at launch from the possibility of disseminating pirated copies in the most important period of a title's commercial cycle.
Without any warning, it seems that Denuvo was then removed just in the last few hours, in correspondence with a patches in whose notes no reference is made to the issue, as if to maintain a sort of secrecy regarding the use of the software in question.
The players will still be happy
Two years after the original release of Ghostwire Tokyo, it is not exactly news with a huge impact, however knowing the controversies that always surround Denuvo and its alleged negative impact on performance, the fact that it has been removed will certainly be well received by many players.
After arriving on Xbox last year, Ghostwire Tokyo has exceeded 6 million players and remains a very special first-person action horror, awaiting the next project arriving from Tango GameWorks.
