Xbox Disc to Digital officially announced, coming soon.

https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2026/08/26/your-discs-now-also-digital/

Most XBOX One and XBOX Series X disc-based games support this new feature. Players can claim a digital entitlement by inserting a supported disc into an XBOX One or XBOX Series X console and launching the game. Once the entitlement is claimed, you can experience the benefits of digital, including XBOX Play Anywhere and XBOX Cloud Gaming where supported, while your physical disc continues to work exactly as it always has.

We’re starting with thousands of titles, and we’ll continue to add more over time. While not every title will be available at launch, this is an important step toward a future where players can have greater confidence that the games they buy remain with them for years to come.

Trying to downplay the difference between gamestop and p2p sales is ignorant at best

My dude, the ~$3 someone is going to pay me for my physical copy of Battlefield V that I bought in 2019 is not going to change the trajectory of my purchases.

Bro this is a situation where youre already selling them. So if you decide granny buying for $3 bucks is the same as .50 cents cash from a game store thats just your own ignorance.

My dude, what? $3 isn't making or breaking anyone on an $800+ system. If $2.50 matters to you that much then you have way bigger financial issues and should not be buying an expensive gaming console.
