A new Change.org petition has called upon Sony and PlayStation to continue producing and supporting physical game discs beyond 2028, and has over 175,000 signatures at the time of writing.
The petition is in response to Sony’s announcement last week that it will no longer produce PlayStation game discs beyond January 2028.
“A disc is a real game you own. You can lend it, trade it, resell it, gift it, collect it, or pass it down to your kids,” reads a portion of the petition, as penned by PNP Games CEO Jade Pearce.
“A box with only a download code is not the same thing. It is a digital license in plastic packaging. You do not own it. You are renting access that can be revoked, and people have already had purchased movies deleted from their libraries and games pulled from sale weeks after launch.
“Sign to tell Sony to keep disc-based games alive beyond 2028, so the next generation can own the games they play, not just rent them,” Pearce continued. “If we do not speak up now, the disc disappears, and the choice goes with it.”
