From what I know, this is also one of the few games for which the publisher has removed Denuvo.
Pretty incorrect. Denuvo charges companies a regular subscription fee as long as its present in their game, and most companies don’t want to pay it any longer than necessary, so they strip it out after a few months to a year or so after they’ve made the bulk of their sales. The number of Denuvo games that ever actually get cracked is dwarved by the number where the warez guys just wait for the publisher to remove it.
This. A ton of games have it removed eventually. The main purpose is just to keep the game from getting cracked during the initial release phase where they expect the majority of sales and hype.
