In a since deleted tweet from Bethesda Support, they have informed a user that all physical versions of the game regardless of platform will only contain a code to download the game.
While this has been the norm for PC for a while this might be the beginning of a trend for consoles. Personally I feel like there is no point in having a physical version at all if there won’t be a disc included let alone charging full price for it.
Update: After yesterdays news that Starfield might not have a physical disc, Bethesda has come in to clarify the following
Starfield Standard Edition is included with Xbox Game Pass. Game disc included with physical purchases of Xbox Standard Edition. Game code included with physical purchases on PC Standard edition.
This is like God of War: Ragnarok. The limited edition version came with a beautiful steel book case but didn’t come with an actual physical copy of the disc inside.
Physical media in relation to games is a joke now due to all the big patches required. It even affects the Switch.
Metal Gear Solid Vol 1 totals 24gb for the whole game, add another 30gb for all the bonus videos. The cartridge holds 2.1gb of game data.
The Batman Arkham games will come on a cartridge but only the first game is on there, you will have to download the other two.
