Dying Light 2 With Denuvo; DRM Spotted in Steam Database
Dying Light 2 will use Denuvo DRM protection, which is not liked by gamers. Steam database was updated with this information three days before the game's release.

Three days before the debut of Dying Light 2, we learned that the game will use the Denuvo DRM protection. The relevant information appeared in Steam database today. Although the creators never assured that this would not happen, and Denuvo itself is so popular among developers that its implementation in subsequent games is no longer surprising, players may feel a little disappointed.
This anti-piracy solution is somewhat unpopular, mostly for being known to cause complications. People who did not work on computers equipped with Intel Alder Lake processors. The problem has been fixed, but there are more examples of this kind.
Some developers understand the distaste of players and even if they plan to implement this protection in their game, they abandoned the idea before release - Amplitude Studios Mass Effect: Legendary Edition a few weeks after its release.
How will it be with Dying Light 2? That remains to be seen. Many people, however, may now have a grudge against Techland, that the devs did not reveal the fact earlier, which resulted in the information appearing three days before the game's release, when many players already decided to place a preorder. And let me remind you that DL2 reigned supreme in recent weeks on the wishlists of Steam s.
Thanks to the map published by Techland we also learned the exact time of Dying Light 2's release. On PS4, PS5, XOne and XSX|S the game will be available at midnight on February 4, while on PC - at 1:00 am CET.
