Denuvo in Monster Hunter Wilds seems to work normal after initial issues. Anti tamper and something went wrong errors were common

It is a common thing among players to put all the blame on Denuvo when it comes to games’ optimization. However, it often seems unfounded, and the current tests and analysis done over the Internet are ambiguous at best. We could have expected that this anti-tamper system will be present in one of the biggest hits of this year – Monster Hunter Wilds. Also, what should not be surprising, MH Wilds have technical problems at launch (at least for some), which can be experienced in so many titles recently, like Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 or Civilization 7. Many fans obviously see their source in Denuvo, and surprisingly those allegations seem to be somewhat valid this time around. After some time, anti-tamper error has passed, though, everything appears to be working as normal again. Additionally, many players saw “something went wrong” errors, which are also less frequent now. What’s going on? Let’s find out.

Is Denuvo responsible for MH Wilds not launching?

After encountering issues during beta tests regarding MH Wilds and the concerns about its technical state due to developers’ assurance that optimization would be included in the full version of the game, it is not surprising that many gamers experienced difficulties launching the title due to conflicts between “Denuvo” and “optimization.” However, it is worth noting that these problems seem to have been resolved now.

It’s been discovered that the problems you’ve previously encountered can be resolved quite simply by:

1. Restarting Steam
2. Verifying game files
3. Running the title’s executable with administrative privileges
4. Or restarting your computer altogether

Some players speculate that these issues were due to communication troubles with Denuvo servers, as everything appears to be functioning normally now.

It’s no wonder that the Anti-Tamper feature might crack under the pressure of countless gamers eager to explore the Forbidden Lands for their hunting pleasure, as evidenced by MH Wilds attracting nearly a million viewers on SteamDB. This is quite an impressive feat! However, when considering the number of reviews (approximately 3000), only about 42% are positive at the time of writing this text. Given this data, it seems that most players are likely experiencing decent gameplay without feeling compelled to write either positive or negative feedback.

Hopefully, soon we will see further patches including performance adjustments. Happy hunting!
