Physical disc production ending in January 2028 for new games releasing on PlayStation consoles

As consumer preferences and the broader entertainment industry continue to shift away from physical discs to digital, physical game disc production for all new games releasing on PlayStation consoles will be discontinued starting January 2028. Following this date, new games will be available on PlayStation Store and at retailers in digital formats only.

The shift to digital distribution allows for more frequent updates and patches, which can enhance gaming experiences with improved features over time.
