The brief
Digital Rights Management (DRM) security for the title Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced has been compromised. Multiple reports indicate that the Denuvo protection system used to prevent unauthorized distribution of the game has been cracked. This security breach occurred approximately one month after the game's initial launch. Alongside this specific title, reports from Mezha indicate that the protection systems for other games, specifically Crimson Desert and Avatar: Front, have also been cracked by a hacker. Coverage of the event is widespread across gaming and technology publications.
Both DSOGaming and thegamer.com have confirmed that the Denuvo protection for Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced has been bypassed. Further reporting from tbreak.com emphasizes the timing of the crack, noting that it happened only a month after the game was released to the public. This coordinated focus across multiple outlets highlights the significance of the security failure for these specific high-profile releases. Technical details regarding the performance impact of the crack have emerged through en.gamegpu.com. According to their reporting, a Denuvo hack attributed to an entity named voices38 resulted in a 5% loss of license in frames per second (FPS) when tested on a Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor while running Black Flag Resynced.
This specific data point provides context on how the removal of the DRM may interact with specific hardware configurations and the resulting impact on game performance metrics. Looking forward, the industry will likely monitor the continued availability of these cracked versions and whether additional titles are targeted. The coverage establishes a pattern of successful breaches affecting not only the Assassin's Creed title but also Avatar: Front and Crimson Desert. Observers will be watching to see if there are further performance benchmarks regarding the voices38 hack or if developers respond to the loss of Denuvo protection across these various gaming properties.
