NIS America president Kenzo Saruhashi says PlayStation is “hearing a lot of the feedback from customers” on the 2028 disc cutoff. He also runs Nippon Ichi Software, the Disgaea studio. Limited editions are a big part of NISA’s JRPG business. Those boxes still ship, he told Kotaku. After January 2028 a code-in-a-box SKU is one option. He says it is not the only one on the table. Sony said in July that new PlayStation games after that date go digital-only. Older disc titles can still be reprinted. CFO Lin Tao has already said the company will “cautiously move this forward.” Saruhashi is not claiming a reversal. He is saying the talk with Sony can still change. For a publisher that lives on physical collector sets, that is the update.
