In both categories, performance increased by roughly 50-60 percent once Denuvo was removed. The test confirmed significantly higher frame time spikes and longer loading times with Denuvo enabled. Overlord took an opportunity this week to definitively test the game immediately before and after Denuvo had been removed, and to ensure that its test would not include any GPU-limited results.

Many players are also viewing this as an opportunity for publishers to finally opt out of using Denuvo for their releases considering something like this is going to be pretty damaging for a game, at least until a fix is released.The last game on that list will likely stand out, because Rime's initial, Denuvo-saddled version already drew an uproar from fans thanks to poor PC performance.

Its probably safe to assume that Enix was aware that the licensing for Denuvo was going to expire soon. Square Enix has also recently taken steps to remove the Denuvo DRM from their games, only a few weeks ago, Square Enix removed the DRM for various games using Denuvo like Rise of the Tomb Raider, Life is Strange: True Colors as well as NieR: Replicant.
