"Sony's killing disks to protect PS6 profits": Sony reportedly kept developers in dark about death of physical games

Sony quietly decided to kill physical game disks by 2028, and the PS6 won't include a disk drive — a move that reportedly caught even game developers off guard. The decision appears financially motivated: removing the disk drive cuts console costs, and going all-digital lets Sony take a 30% cut on every game sold while eliminating the second-hand market, protecting profits for both Sony and publishers like Rockstar.
