Comment on Physical disc production ending in January 2028 for new games releasing on PlayStation consoles

…codes which can only be redeemed through the PS Store.

Why does that matter if you can buy them anywhere?

I’ve never seen digital codes at discount prices on official storefronts.

Because retail has never sold digital copies before.
Well that’s not true - you can buy digital codes for some Xbox games at retail, or at least you could, and they often went on sale.
