Is it? With this the disc drive would be a peripheral you can add instead of requiring you to buy a specific PS5 model.

Sources told the site that this new model of the PS5 has been in production since the PS5 launched in November 2020.

If this is true then this was probably the original plan to begin with but they caved and threw on the disc drive last minute. The digital console does look better.

A smaller PS5 sounds good, the thing is fucking enormous. Cautiously optimistic about this.

The disk drive on the current model looks like a total afterthought - this seems like a nice way to have playing physical games as an option without ruining the design of the console or creating an extra SKU for people who don't care. I'd imagine it's much better that way from a production standpoint, too.

I might be talking out of my ass with this, but would the disk drive being detachable affect the speed/usability of it at all? Feels like something that would be less ideal for disk users than a disk drive being built into the console. If not then whatever, sure go for it.

Nothing has actually run off the game disc since the PS3 - ever since the PS4, the full game installs and runs off your HDD/SSD and the disc in the tray is just a "key" to start it up. (Basically, digital and physical games have been completely identical in terms of function since the last generation)

Oh I thought it still did something with the disk even if it was less than the past, I guess that makes sense then

1. They've sold over 20 million PS5s
2. This is a rumor for late 2023, not an announcement.
