PlayStation games are going fully digital in 2028. That's not just concerning for physical media fans - it's offensive to players everywhere. With rising hardware prices due to AI and RAM shortages, delisted games, and future game consoles being prohibitively expensive, we're not thrilled with the idea of a PS6 being digital only and having to leave our old physical games behind. We're long beyond the days of the PS4 and the "How to share your games" video, produced in response to the control Xbox was exerting at the time. This new stance from Sony , seems to imply that it won't just be the PlayStation 5 and PS5 Pro that will suffer, but this could be the new normal for the PS6. How do you feel about a media-free future, and do you still plan on expanding your physical game collection going forward? Let us know!
