Sony announced Wednesday that it will stop producing physical discs for all new PlayStation games starting in January 2028, marking a move into an all-digital future. After that, every new release will be sold digitally through the PlayStation Store and other retailers. Games released before the cutoff will continue to be available on disc.
Physical copies have long been a staple of gaming culture, so for many players, saying goodbye to game discs will be bittersweet. However, Sony said the decision reflects how most players already buy and play games today.
