Sony has announced its intention to discontinue the manufacturing of physical game discs for PlayStation consoles starting in January 2028. This decision, reiterated by CFO Lin Tao, is driven by the significant growth in digital content consumption and revenue, which has surpassed physical sales by a wide margin. Despite acknowledging fan backlash and the loss of benefits like resale and sharing associated with physical media, Sony believes the transition to an all-digital platform will not negatively impact its business.
