Update: Konami addressed the situation on its Twitter account this evening, saying it's working to fix the issue.
#Metal gear rising revengeance pc senator bug update#
We've reached out to Konami for more details, and will update this article with any information we receive. Kellams, creative producer at developer Platinum Games, said on Twitter that he's unsure of the root cause of the problem, and is looking into it. According to NeoGAF user Guess Who, the game will work in Steam's offline mode if the user has installed a modified version of the steam_api.dll file - which could result in their Steam account being banned. However, a problem with Revengeance's use of the Steam API may be at issue, rather than DRM instituted by Konami. "Looks like Rising doesn't work at all if your internet goes out or if you put Steam in offline mode," said Parsnip on NeoGAF. When my internet connection drops out while playing, the game instantly bombs out," said Steam user TescoValueName. Try opening it without an internet connection and it closes. And unless your internet connection is completely stable it also doesn't work.

"This game will not run without an internet connection. But disgruntled Steam users are giving the game negative reviews, citing the apparent presence of always-online DRM. Konami released the PC port of Revengeance today, and its Steam listing makes no mention of an online requirement. The Windows PC version of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance may be outfitted with always-online DRM, although the online requirement may also result from a bug in the game, according to reports on NeoGAF and in reviews on Steam.
