Recent figures indicate a significant downturn in physical game sales for PlayStation consoles, aligning with the platform holder’s upcoming decision to cease support for physical disc games by 2028. This trend points to an increasing shift away from tangible media for PlayStation titles, particularly in the United States market.
Insights from industry tracking firm Circana, shared by analyst Mat Piscatella, shed light on the extent of this decline. The data reveals a stark reality where a very limited number of PlayStation releases managed to surpass 10,000 physical unit sales in the US during a recent period.
This finding underscores the diminishing demand for boxed copies as the gaming landscape continues its transition towards digital distribution, further emphasizing the growing digital dominance in the console space. This report is based on information initially shared by GameSpot – All News.
