Those numbers include THOUSANDS of digital ONLY games. Add ons Dlcs Free to play. Again there is a REASON sony doesnt specify it and just say"all games that have both a physical and digital release 82% is digital" Because in reality that % is prob around 30 or 40% |
They literally do specify how it is calculated. For the last Financial Year supplemental information report page 12 footnote 11. They specify how it is calculated in every single financial release.
It is full games sales on PSN divided by total full game software sales. It does not include Ads-ons, DLC, F2P. It also doesn’t include pack-ins even if they are just digital codes. All the Sony pack-ins are effectively counted as physical sales. So, Sony could actually skew the number more if they desired.
Here’s some data on revenue(Jan-March quarter 2026), just to put the situation into true perspective for you:
Physical software - ¥17.7b
Digital Software - ¥244.4b
Add-on Content - ¥349b
PS Plus - ¥208.5b
Other Software(PC, and other ports) - ¥24.8b
Sony made more revenue from first party games on other platforms than they made from all physical software released on PS, including their revenue share from every single third party game.
