Company of Heroes 3 is now free of DRM, the popular PC game by the hands of Relic can now be owned by you and many more. The removal of Denuvo often comes with massive boosts to performance and the ability to own what you paid for. It is crazy that we have to keep hammering this message, but we live in a world where we don’t really own the things we buy from digital storefronts. The only way to own digital games is either buying them from GOG, or getting them for free through other means, but now Company of Heroes 3 is secured.
Company of Heroes 3 is free of DRM
Being free of this kind of software means that people who paid for the game now own it, and there’s also more of a reason to buy the game out too. While stuff you buy on Steam is still behind yet another layer of DRM, Denuvo is the most annoying one to deal with due to the fact that it forces you to always be online at any time. Denuvo also tries to sniff your whole PC setup for every bit of valuable information so it can assess if something changed on your computer or not, and if it did then they will often lock you out of your legally purchased game.
While this is rare, it has happened to some users, and players who have been playing this game since 2023 have been against the fact that it has Denuvo in it. Company of Heroes is a long running series with decent reputation behind, the studio has gotten into some drama, but Company of Heroes 3 truly helped them stand above the ground and survive as a studio. Now that they did the right choice, perhaps you should consider buying the game to show your support.
