Is PS5 disc edition better?

It’s worth pointing out that there are no differences in performance or power between the PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition. There are obvious aesthetic differences between the two devices, as the PS5 Digital Edition has a slightly smaller profile owing to the absence of a disc drive.

Do discs take up less space on PS5?

Every game is 100% installed though, whether it’s a digital game or disc game so they both take up the same space. The only difference is the fact that you need to keep in the disc for a disc game as the console uses the disc as a “license check” to make sure that you actually still own that game.

How many games can PS5 hold?

Many of the best PS5 games require between 40-60 GB of storage. Even if you mix in some PS4 games and smaller indies, you can realistically store 10-15 games on the drive at a time. After that, you’ll need to delete games and redownload them if you ever want to play them again.

Does buying the disc save storage?

It simply does not matter if you buy disk games or download them. The disk will also install and take the same amount of space that a downloaded game would.

Is it better to buy digital games or hard copies?

Are disc and digital games the same size?

Do discs run better than digital?

Do digital games run better than disc based games, vice versa, or is there not really a difference in performance and loading times? No difference at all. The disc once installed is only used for a license check.

Can you add storage to PS5 Digital Edition?

What is the difference between PS5 disc and digital?

The first and most significant difference between the Standard PS5 and the PS5 Digital Edition is that the former comes with a disc drive and the latter does not. The digital version of the PS5 is 100% digital, meaning it won’t be compatible at all with games that come on a disc.
