PS5 Disc Sales to End in 2028, EU Unable to Intervene in Sony's Decision

The European Union has stated it cannot stop Sony from discontinuing physical disc releases for new PS5 games starting January 2028, citing commercial freedoms. Despite a petition nearing 300,000 signatures and backlash from gamers, Sony is unlikely to reverse its decision, which shifts focus to more lucrative digital sales. This move affects all new PS5 titles, though some upcoming games like God of War Laufey and Marvel’s Wolverine will still be available on disc.
