Around this date, Capcom released an official update for Resident Evil 2 that included:
The official update did not introduce major new story content but was part of post-launch maintenance.
You cannot install this over an official Steam or Epic version. It’s designed for a specific cracked base game (usually Resident.Evil.2-CODEX initial release). Attempting to apply it to a legit copy will break the game.
The CODEX crack removed Denuvo DRM entirely. In late 2019, Denuvo still caused measurable CPU overhead (5-10% frame drops on mid-range CPUs). The v20191218 CODEX version runs smoother on older hardware (e.g., i5-3470, GTX 960) compared to the official Steam version of that same patch.
