SOFTWARE

Denuvo causes framerate/performance issues in Tekken 7 according to Katsuhiro Harada, fix coming soon
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/denuvo-causes-framerate-issues-in-tekken-7-according-to-katsuhiro-harada-fix-coming-soon/
As Katsuhiro Harada claimed, the PC version of Tekken 7 currently suffers from a performance issue that is caused by the anti-tamper tech. This issue occurs when players use some moves and hit their opponents, like Akuma’s “Shakunetsu Hadouken”. Do note that this issue was introduced in the latest version as pretty much all previous versions worked perfectly fine.

>>Thanks, Denuvo!
