Resident Evil Requiem PS5 Disc Sales Outpace Xbox Copies
According to analyst Rhys Elliott from Alinea Analytics, physical disc sales for Resident Evil Requiem on the PlayStation 5 outperformed all copies sold on the Xbox. This highlights a broader trend where single-player AAA titles and the Japanese market remain particularly reliant on physical media. Elliott's report comes as part of an analysis into declining revenues from physical game sales ahead of their potential elimination in certain markets. The data shows that 30% of Requiem’s PS5 revenue came specifically from disc sales, underscoring a continued demand for tangible products despite the rise of digital distribution. The findings suggest PlayStation's dominance in this segment and raise questions about consumer preferences across different platforms.
