Sony won't U-turn on PS5 discs as its factory is already making something else
Sony is unlikely to reverse its decision to phase out physical game discs by 2028, as its primary disc factory in Austria is being repurposed. The factory will shift production from PlayStation discs to optical microlenses, with a significant investment in new equipment. While fans have protested and signed petitions, Sony's strategic move towards new manufacturing ventures suggests a permanent shift away from physical media for its consoles.
