Embark Studios is adding Denuvo Anti-Cheat to ARC Raiders in patch 1.29.0 to address persistent cheating that has reduced player counts since launch.
The rollout starts today to a limited pool of players for monitoring.
This is anti-cheat only, with no Denuvo DRM included, and the studio is working to minimize performance impact based on its use in THE FINALS.
The update also brings gameplay tweaks including the Rascal Grenade Launcher, while the next major content patch has been delayed until October.
