Denuvo cracking group DenuvOwO reportedly disbands amid lawsuit, but piracy continues

The DenuvOwO cracking group has reportedly disbanded, likely due to a lawsuit filed by Irdeto, the company behind the Denuvo Digital Rights Management (DRM) software. This action has led to the removal of DenuvOwO's cracked game links and the banning of some members from the CS.Rin forum. Despite this setback, other cracking groups like RUNE and Voices38 continue to bypass Denuvo protections, with RUNE recently releasing a crack for Assassin's Creed Mirage that significantly improved performance and reduced file size.
