Denuvo DRM removed from Star Wars Jedi: Survivor alongside new PC optimisation patch

Respawn is continuing to polish up the PC version of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. The latest patch is pretty substantial, removing Denuvo DRM, alongside new CPU usage and ray-tracing optimisations. 

While today's new patch only applies to PC, an upcoming update to the PlayStation 5 version of the game will enable save transfers between PS4 and PS5.

With that little note about console updates out of the way, let's jump into all of the PC improvements coming with Patch 9:

  • Framerate improvements for various hardware configurations.
  • Smoother gameplay with fixes for several sources of framerate hitching
  • CPU usage for Ray Tracing has been optimised, and Ray Tracing now scales better for high-end GPUs.
  • Denuvo DRM has been removed
  • Various quality-of-fixes, including improved mouse-and-keyboard control across many in-game menus
  • Bug fixes for rare crashes and collision issues

At launch, Jedi: Survivor was in rough shape on PC. Even the game's performance modes on PS5 and Xbox Series X were rocky. Now, well over a year since, the game is in much better shape across all platforms.

KitGuru Says: It isn't uncommon to see a big game removing Denuvo a year or more after launch. That in itself may help some people with getting the game running smoothly.
