"Long live physical media": Devs and publishers of Baldur's Gate 3, Silksong, and more call Sony's decision to end physical PlayStation games "genuinely heartbreaking"

Hollow Knight: Silksong.

Yet another shockwave's been sent through the industry, as starting in 2028, Sony will no longer be producing physical discs for new PlayStation games. This is not going down well with many, including plenty of developers and publishers, who are crestfallen about not getting to see their projects transition from being purely digital on the platform.

"As a company on a mission to preserve video games, we are deeply saddened by the recent news from PlayStation on ending physical disc production from 2028," indie publisher Lost in Cult says in a statement. "We aim to do everything in our power to preserve video games to the best of our ability and will continue to do so for as long as we can."
