While the fans were hyped with the latest Assassin's Creed Mirage launch, Ubisoft made their fans unhappy with a silent addition of Denuvo, an anti-temper technology. One of the Twitter users noticed the addition of Denuvo via the Day 1 patch. The user also shared a screenshot of the EULA-Denuvo "End User License Agreement", stating the inclusion of Denuvo DRM.
Fans are unhappy with the addition of Denuvo as it has a history of hampering the performance of the games, as the software itself uses additional resources to run. One of the Twitter users responded to the tweet with the comment, "Ridiculous decision", while the other said, "But why? especially, why after release? Probably so reviewers don't mention it."

Fans Are Unhappy With The Addition of Denuvo DRM In Assassin's Creed Mirage
The publishers prominently use Denuvo's Digital Rights Management (DRM) and anti-tampering technology to protect their games from piracy and unauthorized distribution. While it makes it difficult for cheaters and hackers to reverse engineer the game and modify the files to crack the game, it has affected genuine users.
Whenever Denuvo DRM has been part of a game, the users complain of performance issues, negatively impacting their gaming experience. While everyone has been worried about performance issues after the update, user experience has confirmed that there isn't any difference in the game's performance after running it on patch 1.0.2, including the DRM.
In Gossip's Assassin's Creed Mirage Review, the game has a "crisp, concise, and entertaining story" and offers "simple, nonconvoluted gameplay mechanics while being an improvement from AC Valhalla." Read the in-depth review of AC Mirage here.
