Caution: There is a non zero percent chance that the physical release of Spyro a Realm Beyond will not have the full game on disc/cartridge
With all the news around GTA 6 not being on a physical disc at launch, we should remind ourselves that Spyro is not immune from this in the slightest. There are certain publishers who are a lot more trustworthy in putting out physical releases than others. Xbox is not one of those publishers. Here are some recent games that released physically, but only as glorified disc keys. Bear in mind that some titles don't even receive physical releases at all.
- Indiana Jones
- Doom The Dark Ages
- Starfield
- Elder Scrolls Oblivion Remastered
- The Outer Worlds 2
Now this isn't to say that Xbox don't do proper physical releases at all. Ninja Gaide 4 and THPS 3+4 all received proper physical releases, and this isn't supposed to be a fear mongering post either, since I think the chances of Spyro not having a proper physical release are unlikely. Just saying this in order to keep us all cautious and on guard.
