Sony has partnered with anti-piracy software provider Denuvo to offer anti-cheat solutions to PS5 developers.

In an today, Denuvo parent company Irdeto stated that it had "joined the exclusive ," offering its anti-cheat tech to publishers and developers creating games for t꧋he console.

In this instance, however, the service's anti-cheat technology will be used instead. Denuvo claims that its software🗹 will "secure both online gameplay as well as securely reward offline progress," and "help game developers protect sensitive game logic or data, 🍬preventing cheaters from changing sensitive variables." 

This isn't the first time that Denuvo has worked with Sony, as "a number of games incorporated Denuvo's anti-cheat at launch of PlayStation 5." Th🅠e introduction iﷺnto the Tools and Middleware program, however, will make it easier for a wider number of console devs to incorporate the anti-cheat tools on PlayStation, should they want to.

Piracy and cheating generally aren't as significant an issue on console as they are on PC, leading some commenters on to question why Sony would need to partner with Denuvo. As pointed out by Digital Foundry's Alexander Battaglia, however, with Sony looking to increase the amountꦛ of PlayStation gamꦉes releasing on PC over the next few years, the company could be in greater need of 🅰protection for players🙈.
