Capcom Tidak Terganggu oleh Game Fisik yang Mati

One of the biggest talking points in gaming lately has been around Sony's decision to end support for physical game discs in 2028. It's prompted concerns about game preservation, along with people generally being upset about owning physical media. Now, publisher Capcom has shared its thoughts, with management saying the shrinking physical game market is not expected to have much of an impact because the company sells mostly digital games.

"Approximately 90% of our unit sales are digital. We do not anticipate a significant impact at this time," the company said.

Capcom is not alone in having a growing share of its game sales come from digital--a shift to digital has been a growing trend in recent years across the board.

Nintendo, for its part, just released its latest earnings briefing today, August 6, confirming digital game sales made up 61.5% of total sales during the latest quarter, up from 59.3% during the same period last year. Electronic Arts recently released its latest report as well, showing 81% of game sales were digital.

For its part, Sony said it's ending support for physical game discs on PlayStation in response to "consumer trends." The data clearly shows a growing trend toward digital games, but experts also believe the shift to all-digital is about power, control, and making more money.

The biggest game of 2026, GTA 6, is also releasing as a digital exclusive. The game will be sold at retailers in a box, but players only get a code to download the game.
