: In February 2023, a Denuvo-free developer build of Atomic Heart leaked days before its official launch. InsaneRamZes was among the first to package the 79.9 GB portable release , providing immediate access to the global gaming community.

It was programmed to check the user's regional settings and terminate itself if it detected that the device was in Russia or the CIS countries , a common tactic used by malware authors to avoid law enforcement in their own region. More troublingly, it was also designed to steal credentials for development tools like Postman and BitBucket, suggesting the attackers were targeting developer accounts for further, more serious attacks.
