My guess is it’s basically a beta test of the DRM that they’re going to roll out for future games. Y’know… instead of testing in-house, just test on your consumers.
Possibly, though I suspect that releasing your new DRM early is a good way to have it broken by the time you actually want to protect something with it.

Disregard quality control, acquire short term profits.
