PC game store GOG explains how digital ownership should be as PlayStation announces end of physical discs

PlayStation plans to phase out physical discs for its consoles starting in January 2028, coinciding with the digital-only release of GTA 6. This shift reflects the industry's move toward a digital-only future, impacting collectors and enthusiasts of physical media. Meanwhile, GOG offers a DRM-free gaming experience, allowing users to retain access to purchased games even if they are removed from the store, as long as the files are installed. GOG's model enables personal backups on physical media and does not require an internet connection for gameplay, although online multiplayer may vary. The future of PlayStation adopting a similar DRM-free approach remains uncertain.
