Take-Two Interactive’s chief executive has downplayed concerns about the decline of physical, disc-based games, arguing that the company is already overwhelmingly reliant on digital distribution. The comments underline how publishers increasingly view digital sales as the core of their business, potentially reducing the importance of retail discs for future releases.

The executive said more than 90% of Take-Two’s business is digitally distributed, suggesting the company sees limited commercial risk from a further move away from physical media. This shift reflects wider industry trends towards downloads, digital storefronts and live-service spending, although it also raises ongoing concerns about ownership, preservation and consumer choice.
