Take-Two’s CEO has defended the decision to release GTA 6 as a digital-only title, stating that physical discs no longer make practical sense for the game.
The executive’s position reflects a broader industry shift toward digital distribution. According to the CEO, moving away from physical media aligns with modern gaming infrastructure and consumer behavior.
This announcement comes as the company prepares for the game’s launch. The digital-only approach eliminates the need for disc manufacturing and physical retail logistics, which the CEO suggests is unnecessary in today’s market.
The decision matters for players awaiting release because it confirms they’ll need reliable internet access and digital platform accounts to play GTA 6, rather than having the option to purchase a physical copy.
