Sony Clarifies 2028 PlayStation Disc Output Will Drop 10%, Not to 10% of Volume
Sony says reports of a 90% drop in PlayStation disc production were a misinterpretation: the expected decline is 10% in 2028, not a collapse to 10% of volume. Meanwhile, physical disc production for new games will end from January 2028, but existing titles and reorders continue, with manufacturing remaining in-house via Sony DADC. The clarification followed comments attributed to DADC chief Dietmar Tanzer. Analysts weigh potential impacts on the resale market and licensing, while Sony and industry figures discuss the broader shift from ownership to digital-access models.
