Warner Bros Adds Denuvo DRM to LEGO Batman Legacy of the Dark Knight

Warner Bros has added Denuvo anti-tamper technology to LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight right before its May 22 global launch.

Warner Bros has updated the store page for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight to include Denuvo anti-tamper technology. This addition comes shortly before the game's scheduled release date of May 22. The publisher integrated the digital rights management solution into the narrative-led action-adventure title developed by TT Games.

Publisher previously removed DRM from Gotham Knights and other titles

The game launches globally on May 22. Warner Bros serves as the publisher for this latest entry in the LEGO Batman franchise. TT Games handles the development duties for the project. The inclusion of Denuvo marks a specific technical change to the software package prior to its public availability.

Warner Bros has a history of removing Denuvo from its titles after their initial launch. The publisher previously stripped the technology from games such as Gotham Knights, Back 4 Blood, and Mortal Kombat 11. Industry observers speculate that Warner Bros may remove Denuvo from LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight within one or two years based on this past pattern.

This pre-launch update adds a layer of protection to the game that was not previously confirmed in its store listing. The decision to include Denuvo aligns with common practices among major publishers seeking to prevent early piracy. The long-term status of the DRM remains subject to the publisher's historical tendencies.
