That was because PCs when they have a physical media reader it is dvd instead of bd. So MS gone and launched for the most common (and still niche) PC market. Xbox can read DVD but you can bet the game will come on BD. I don't think printing the games on 4K BD will be that much more expensive long term than making more discs or if consumers will be happy with all games needing download to even play (Sony said all their physical PS4 and PS5 games could be played after installing without any need to connect to the internet). |
They have 4K players anyway and 4K blu-ray has been around for a while so sure why not. At the start of the gen I'm guessing we'll continue to get blu-ray discs. Cross-gen titles that can be read on both the old and new machines. 4K blu-rays should also install a bit faster. Blu-ray was up to 27 MBs on ps4 (6x), 32 minutes to copy a full 50GB disc. BDXL goes up to 128 GB, if rotating at the same speed that should reduce copy times to 40%.
