DOOM free update 5 is out now and it seems that the update removes the Denuvo Anti-Temper technology. In addition, the patch adds the “infernal run” game mode, multiplayer bots and offers various improvements.
Bethesda announced the release of the free DOOM update yesterday, and while patch notes were provided, the removal of Denuvo wasn’t mentioned. The anti-temper technology prevented players from using mods in DOOM, but it would seem this now a thing of the past. The removal of Denuvo was spotted by eagle-eyed NEOGAF user “BernardoOne” who posted some data scans.
