But there are still new games coming out! How do they press those? You can't do that ahead of time, you need the gold master build.

  All versions of the PS5 support digital download. They’ll just release them digitally. Discs now are mostly collectors items anyway, day 1 patches (in the 10s of GB) have made them mostly useless.

    ...but is that official? No new physical PS5 games? I'm certainly not arguing they can't do it, but it would be a big change.

      They just built another factory in Brazil for pressing discs.[1] [1] https://www.techradar.com/gaming/consoles-pc/sonys-new-brazilian-production-line-will-provide-physical-ps5-discs-for-latin-american-players https://www.techradar.com/gaming/consoles-pc/sonys-new-brazi...

        ...so then Sony is still making BluRays? I'm so confused!

          I think the announcement is just for blank (recordable) media.
