Analyst Says Sony Killing Physical PS5 Games “Dooms” Brick-And-Mortar Stores
Analyst Michael Pachter believes Sony's decision to discontinue physical PlayStation 5 game releases in January 2028 will be the "death knell" for brick-and-mortar game retailers. While the move may save Sony money, Pachter argues it is anti-consumer and ignores the significant role the used game market plays for consumers and retailers like GameStop, whose business is increasingly reliant on collectibles and hardware.
