No disks large enough probably (100 gig for PS5). And still if they manage to squeeze some form of the game on it, a large day one patch would render it obsolete.

A nice box with artwork like a map and other goodies is still great. I always found those maps useful and aesthetically pleasing.

Having a playable version of a game physically is great and I’d buy a version with some physical storage medium if it ever hits the shelves. Maybe the game needs more time for that. Or a different data carrier.

Edit: added PS5 disk size and preference of a physical game

World of Warcraft shipped with 6 DVDs or something like that. Installing it was a pain in the ass but there is something nice about that whole ritual

A PS5 disk can hold as much as 100GB, and they could use multiple disks if necessary.
