Wait, this game doesn't have a physical release yet? Lol?
Huh, frankly it's bizarre it took this long.
Physical games are becoming a niche market.
Sadly, that is the case, but I for one still collect games whenever possible on disc/physical form.
Thats one reason Im playing on consoles rather than on PC, but I know its just a matter of time before discs become thing of the past, sadly because of things like Gamepass and the digital distribution was already increasingly more popular even before but services like Gamepass are only going to accelerate downfall of physical game discs. As a collector of games there are some dark times ahead, but as long as its possible collect games in physical form and boycot services like Gamepass, thats what I plan to do and thats why Im glad to see physical release of Psychonauts 2.
Why is this only happening a year after release, and also why is the publisher Skybound and not Microsoft?
Idk why it's happening a year after release, but Microsoft isn't working on the physical release. It's been licensed out. Like how whenever Limited Run Games puts out physical copies of a previously only digital title, Limited Run is listed as the publisher for just the physical release.
I might buy it again to support the dev, since it didn't sell
