As you have probably seen on your travels around the internet Sony has announced that it’s stopping physical video game releases starting January 2028. The news has not gone down well with PlayStation console owners, but it’s seems unlikely Sony will change course. FRVR has contacted its sources to find out how much difference there is in pricing between a physical PlayStation 5 disc and a Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 cartridge. They have discovered that a physical PlayStation 5 game is close to $6.50 to produce and a Nintendo Switch cartridge costs $12 to $15, with Nintendo Switch 2 cartridges being a little more expensive.
“Anonymous sources familiar to modern game production informed FRVR that the average cost of production for a physical PlayStation 5 game is somewhere close to $6.50, or around £5, in today’s climate for a standard release. For AAA games where hundreds of thousands of discs are pressed, this changes at scale, but costs are similar.”
