Sony to End Physical PS Game Discs in 2028, Embracing Digital-Only Releases
TL;DR Summary
Sony will stop producing physical discs for new PlayStation games starting January 2028, with all future releases digital-only on the PlayStation Store and other retailers; games released before that date will still be sold on disc. The move reflects rising digital adoption but draws concerns about resale, sharing, and ongoing access tied to accounts and servers.
