Sony Kills Physical PlayStation Discs From 2028

Sony announced it will stop producing physical discs for PlayStation games starting January 2028, moving completely to digital downloads.

The decision signals a full shift toward an all-digital future and has sparked intense backlash from game preservation advocates.

The move is the first by a major console maker and marks the end of an era for physical media in gaming.

Critics argue that the change will hurt consumers who rely on disc-based game libraries and could lead to higher prices in a less competitive digital marketplace.
