Just last week Chinese pirating group 3DM was saying that from the Chinese New Year (Feb 8th) they would not be pirating any new singleplayer games to see how much it would have an effect on the legitimate sales of games. This led some to speculate that they’d done it because they had previously said that anti-tamper software Denuvo was proving to be difficult to crack.

However the group has made an announcement to dispel the rumours saying that they’re on the verge of cracking the latest Denuvo, which means that games it’s been keeping from being pirated (including Rise of the Tomb Raider and Just Cause 3) could soon be made available for torrenting.

“3DM will soon announce that we have a solution to the latest Denuvo encryption used on games including ‘FIFA 16’, ‘Just Cause 3’, and ‘Tomb Raider: The Rise’,” 3DM leader Bird Sister just announced, via TorrentFreak. “We [made this announcement] because a lot of players believe we have abandoned cracking due to technical problems, but we will prove it is not the case. We have not yet been stumped [by protection measures].”

The way these games will be made available isn’t clear, but it has been said that it won’t be high-profile or an official 3DM release.
