You might be looking for games like Hogwarts Legacy or Resident Evil 4 Remake. Those are not on this list because Denuvo failed there—eventually.

In the world of PC gaming, there exists a digital fortress known as Denuvo. For years, it has stood as the most formidable anti-tamper technology, designed to keep games locked away from those who would play them without paying. A small, dedicated group of crackers — like modern-day locksmiths — have tried to break in. Most of the time, they succeed. But sometimes, the vault holds.

This is the story of the games that, as of 2026, remain uncracked — still standing behind Denuvo’s latest defenses.


Before we dive into the list, it’s crucial to understand why this list exists. For a brief period in 2018-2019, crackers (notably CPY) found exploits that allowed them to bypass even the newest Denuvo versions. However, Denuvo Software Solutions GmbH learned from those attacks.

Today’s Denuvo employs:

The result? Groups like Razor1911, EMPRESS, and FAIRLIGHT — the usual titans of DRM removal — have either retired, been arrested, or openly stated that "cracking Denuvo V10+ is no longer worth the 6-12 months of labor."

Thus, the following games remain uncracked and require a legitimate purchase (or a subscription to services like EA Play or Ubisoft+) to play on PC.
