Capcom adds Enigma DRM to Monster Hunter Rise


Capcom is back in the news for its use, once again, of the Enigma Protector DRM system, this time added to Monsters Hunter Rise.

The recent fuss over Capcom adding a little-known DRM to its older back-catalog of games seemed to have gone away, bit is now set to rear its head again if reports of the Enigma Protector being pushed to Monster Hunter Rise in its latest update are true. Enigma Protector had been causing all sorts of issues including stuttering and frame rate drops when it appeared in Resident Evil Revelations recently, so much so that Capcom withdrew the update, apologized, and then didn’t promise it wouldn’t do it again. Having spent time as Head of Communications at a professional sports club and working for high-profile charities such as the National Literacy Trust, he returned as Managing Editor in charge of large US-based technology websites in 2020.
