Only the older games have permanent licenses. All newer games that have Denuvo in the last couple of years have a timed subscription license that they have to pay for to extend and, eventually, they're going to stop paying to use Denuvo.

Considering how successful this game is and they have one DLC coming out in the near future, possibly more, I doubt it will be soon though. Maybe 1-3 years, probably.

I'd get it now, honestly, because Denuvo is not being reported to cause any issues in this game for users. Do be warned that if your main interest is related to the ray tracing this is the heaviest ray tracing game, yet, and cinematic presets are also not your normal ultra but above that... so the highest settings are quite heavy even for a RTX 4080. You basically want a RTX 4090 to use higher RT settings (at all, even if not using cinematic) and a good enough NVME, RAM, and particularly CPU to pair with it. If you don't mind lower ray tracing settings or it off, completely, (which many state looks still very good) you may be able to pull off cinematic settings on a weaker GPU and performance is much lighter with no ray tracing at all.

Gameplay is very good, honestly, which surprised me and this game is far more than a mere boss rush. I highly recommend it, personally.
