Sony has decided to stop producing physical game discs in 2028, according to the excerpt. Experts told Decrypt that lower-income players could be hit hardest because they rely on cheaper used games, while digital purchases require internet access.
Bijetic founder Isa Muhammad said PlayStation Network officially supports only South Africa in the region, so gamers elsewhere often use foreign accounts that may violate Sony’s terms and risk suspension. He estimated that downloading GTA 6’s expected 212GB pre-load in Nigeria could cost $25 to over $60 in data. Sony and PlayStation did not respond to Decrypt’s request for comment.
