The upcoming PC update for Hi-Fi RUSH introduces major backend adjustments, including the complete removal of Denuvo support. While Denuvo will be phased out, the game will continue using its own internal anti-tampering systems, ensuring normal gameplay remains unaffected for all users. These changes are intended to support a more stable and efficient service environment for PC players moving forward.
Due to the significant internal restructuring included in this update, a mandatory patch will be required for all PC users. Players must install the latest version before the deadline to continue launching the game without interruption. Failing to apply the update will prevent the game from running until it has been fully installed.
