Xbox’s Disc-To-Digital Program Has A Big Problem: Several Major Publishers Aren’t Participating
Xbox's disc-to-digital program is facing significant limitations as major publishers like Sega, Square Enix, Ubisoft, and Bandai Namco are not participating. This means physical copies of many popular games, including Far Cry 4, Final Fantasy 15, and Dark Souls 3, cannot be converted to digital licenses. This lack of participation raises concerns for game preservation, especially given Square Enix's history of requiring repurchase for new console generations.
