Every year, the number of games sold digitally, compared to boxed versions, increases. They have experienced a sharp decline in recent years physical versions of games on Xbox consoles.

It comes from traders. Several European retailers were expected to stop selling Xbox games before Christmas. This was reported by Christopher Dring from the GamesIndustry.biz server, to whom the information was disclosed by the publisher. Retailers made this decision due to the dominance of digital sales on Xbox. They call Xbox a digital console.

Unfortunately, data from Europe is not available. So we can only be content with the analytical report from the United States of America. There along Circana Physical versions of Xbox will account for less than 10 percent of gaming spending in 2023.. Nintendo Switch cut more than half. The rest goes to PlayStation. Analyst Daniel Ahmad of Niko Partners sees the same thing. He confirmed that digital versions of some AAA games are currently being created on Xbox. more than 80%. Even he is not too surprised by the actions of retailers in Europe.

We were unable to obtain this ratio from our sources. Instead, they confirmed the superiority of the PlayStation. Recently on the Czech and Slovak market The Switch is doing well, regularly outpacing the Xbox in physical game sales, but the PlayStation is at the top. The situation is probably similar to that in other countries around the world. The only difference is that PC sales here are still doing well compared to the rest of the world.

All this goes hand in hand with Microsoft’s move. Redmon giant recently cancellation internal team responsible for bringing physical games to market. At this time, we do not know if he has/will hire an outside company for this activity. However, Senua Saga: Hellblade 2 will be available in digital format only. This happened last year too Alan Wake 2 from Remedy and Epic. Not to mention last year’s speculations about the preparation of a new Xbox Series X model without a Blu-ray drive. We must not forget that the Xbox Series S does not have a model with mechanics. And it’s this cheaper console that gamers should choose over the more powerful Xbox Series X.
