Well considering 15% of all PS5s sold in Japan are completely digital, compared to 0% from PS4. I would say so.

Sony also puts out data suggesting digital rates (WW) have improved since the launch of the PS5 as compared to the PS4 days.

Having a digital only console that sold 200k, with possibly half or more that was scalped won’t really effect digital percentage imo.

IMO that is a ludicrous statement. You could say half or more of the physical PS5s were scalped too.

Digital only consoles definitely affect digital rates. You literally can't buy physical games on them.

Why do you think MS has such good digital rates in the UK? Probably because the only thing MS can ship is the Xbox Series S, which is a digital only console.
