Warner Bros has removed the Denuvo anti-tamper tech from Hitman 2


It appears that Warner Bros and IO Interactive have removed the Denuvo anti-tamper tech from Hitman 2. This information comes straight from the game’s Steam database entry, and its Steam store page does no longer list Denuvo.

Hitman 2 was released on November 13th for the PC and it was cracked almost two weeks after its official release. We don’t know why it took Warner Bros and IO Interactive so long in order to remove, it however I’m pretty sure that a number of PC gamers will be delighted.

Contrary to its predecessor, Hitman 2 only uses DX11 and has major optimization issues in numerous scenes. As such, we’ll be testing this new Denuvo-free version in order to see whether there are any performance improvements and we’ll be sure to let you know in case there is a noticeable performance boost (if there isn’t any, we will just update this article).

Have fun everyone and stay tuned for more!
