From Dust PC DRM removed
Ubisoft has released a patch to remove the always-on DRM on the PC version of Eric Chahi’s strategy god sim, From Dust.
The game was expected to release with a one-time only registration system, but mistakenly shipped with constant connection DRM.
Ubisoft-hosted save files will be migrated to your PC when installing the patch.
Thanks, Blue.
