Preservation group DoesItPlay organizes week-long PlayStation boycott over Sony's physical media exit

DoesItPlay, a video game preservation community, is organizing a week-long PlayStation boycott from August 23 to 30, urging players to avoid logging into PSN, playing, or making purchases on Sony platforms. The protest responds to Sony's plan to phase out physical game production by 2028, though critics note the chosen week lacks major releases and overlaps with Gamescom, likely blunting its impact.
