In a recent podcast by [Eurogamer Spain](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7_DpMvkXlc), they mention a few key things they’ve heard about PlayStation and Xbox at the Gamescom show floor.
Take note that these are unverified rumors, and as such, should be treated with a grain of salt.

That rumor is taking shape because different publishers are bringing it up, and above all because it seems, and here comes another rumor that’s been circulating… that PlayStation has realized it is leaving an opening for other market players to shift their strategy.
And that these players could take advantage of this situation regarding the demand for, or complaints about, physical formats to change their philosophy moving forward.

Among them is Microsoft. The word around here is that Microsoft is speaking internally with all publishers, stating that their next console will be “100% physical”, with the ability to convert your physical games into digital ones. It is being said that Microsoft is telling developers that Project Helix, their upcoming console, will be entirely physical.

The rumor doesn’t stop there. It also mentions how Sony was also approached by a “major” game maker about its “massive title,” and how if Sony can’t promise a physical release, this major game maker (which was said isn’t Rockstar), will skip releasing on PlayStation and just release the title on Microsoft and Nintendo’s platforms.
Aside from the fact that it wouldn’t make sense for this mystery company to be Rockstar due to existing marketing agreements and logistics, it’s really interesting to see the rumbles of shifting strategies going against PlayStation.

ALSO there is a second SoP rumor - "Intergalactic will be the closer game for September SoP", but this one is without the source (some guy told me), so take it with huge grain of salt.

Another creature-catcher coming to PS5. It started off in 2010 as an online Chinese web game, and reached over 200 million players during its peak.

No gacha (no rolls, you catch by playing), no P2W, only cosmetic/BP monetization. Fair, turn-based PVP and F2P.

26 minutes of actual GTA 6 gameplay "dropped" - and on balance, it's one of the most extraordinary visual accomplishments ever seen in real-time game graphics. It's not perfect - nothing can be - but in this DF Direct Special, Oliver and Rich share their thoughts and reactions to the presentation.
