And here we go. Expect your C-tier AAA games to have Denuvo on Switch, stopping players from emulating it.

    I just need to know which titles have it so I don’t buy those games. It requires an always online connection and that’s a major dealbreaker for me.

        I will say this post isn’t completely true. Denuvo (on pc) requires online checks but from what I’ve experienced it’s typically every 2-4 weeks. I’ve played persona 4 and 5 on my steam deck without internet just fine.

        Edit: Of course this could change for switch. It would be backwards as fuck, but I suppose it is possible

        even when I’m home, my switch is in airplane mode unless I’m actively playing online. it’s crazy how often some games try to phone home, never realized until I got into this habit and started seeing the “please turn off airplane mode” popup
