Sony is ending production of physical discs for all new PlayStation game releases beginning in January 2028, marking a significant step in the gaming industry's ongoing transition to digital distribution.
Sony Interactive Entertainment announced the decision Wednesday in a post on its official PlayStation Blog, saying all new games released after January 2028 will be available through the PlayStation Store and retailers in digital formats only.
The company said the move reflects changing consumer behavior as more players purchase and download games digitally rather than buy physical copies.
