Sony warns new PS5 buyers physical games will be digital only after 2028
Sony is making its disc-less future impossible to ignore for new console buyers. A new warning label is appearing on the boxes of disc-based PS5 consoles, according to reports from Kotaku and Push Square.
The label explicitly states that PS5 games 'will be available for purchase on PlayStation Store and at retailers in digital format only' after January 2028. This confirms the end date for physical game manufacturing first discussed in a recent Sony earnings call.
Push Square notes the move suggests this plan has been in the works for a long time. The new boxes are reportedly hitting retailers now, ensuring every new PS5 buyer is fully aware of the impending shift.
