The release is a historically significant artifact in the software cracking scene due to its successful bypass of early Denuvo protection. A "verified" status indicates the files are authentic to the scene group's release, free from data corruption, and functional.

Official Steam versions of PES 2016 would occasionally "phone home" and verify file integrity, resetting modded kits back to default. The crack disables this phone-home telemetry, meaning your patch sticks forever.
