Denuvo DRM already cracked in Mass Effect: Andromeda

It's a new record.
Sergio Figueroa 4 April 2017

Electronic Arts studios work hard on protecting their PC games from piracy, as they stick to the combination of the Origin platform plus Denuvo DRM to ensure nobody plays any title for free. Hacking group CPY, however, has negated this.

CPY has already cracked Mass Effect: Andromeda, and as reported by Fooxs, they needed 13 days for a full release of a cracked version of the game, setting a new record for a title from EA with Denuvo.

Piracy is not as big an issue in the video games industry as it was in the past, so many players call it "anti-consumer," as companies like CD Projekt Red are making a lot of money without DRM or another kind of protection. Do you agree with these measures?
