Re: Without a Physical PS5 Release, Alan Wake 2 Is Still Remedy's Fastest Selling Game

@ChrisDeku Ok, but talking about Control specifically. The sales were 90% digital in 2020 because people were limited due to the pandemic and not being able to physically shop. In 2021 it was given away on PS+ further skewing its data in favour of digital and after that sales will slow down significantly due to everybody wanting to play it would have by that point.

In the grand scheme of things, people still buy physical media. Bands still release CDs and vinyls and studios still put out DVDs and blu rays. Having the option available leads to more sales overall.
