PlayStation physical games are at the center of growing controversy as Sony reportedly faces backlash over plans to phase out physical game discs by 2028.
The move has upset many PlayStation fans who still prefer buying games on discs. Some players also worry about what a digital-only future could mean for game ownership and collecting.
Now, reports claim Sony has given its first-party developers some of the strictest social media rules they have ever seen. The company reportedly wants to limit how developers discuss the issue online.
The reported rules come as the debate around physical games continues to grow. Many players still value physical copies because they can collect, trade, and resell them.
Sony has not confirmed the reported 2028 plan or the social media guidelines. For now, the claims remain unconfirmed.
However, the story shows just how heated the debate over physical games has become. PlayStation fans will likely keep watching Sony for more details about its plans for the future.
