    Sony Is Killing the Disc. Is Xbox Already Dead? | Gaming Tavern Podcast

    Jamie and Ross pull up a stool to talk about the two biggest stories hanging over console gaming right now. First up, Sony. From January 2028, new games on PlayStation will be released on the PlayStation Store and at retailers in digital formats only. Sony has since defended the decision on an earnings call and confirmed that code-in-a-box releases will carry on, so you’ll still see boxes on shelves, just with nothing inside but a download code. We get into what that means for trading, lending, resale and preservation, whether the PS6 ships without a disc drive, and whether the petition and fan backlash will move Sony at all. Then Xbox. Asha Sharma told staff “Our business today is not healthy” as Xbox launched its biggest restructure ever, cutting roughly 3,200 jobs and moving four well-known studios to new ownership. Is Microsoft quietly walking away from consoles, and does it even matter if Game Pass and PC are where the money is now? Are you still buying physical? Would you buy a console with no disc drive? Tell us in the comments.
