Microsoft might be launching a disc-less Xbox One this coming year! Apart from it being disc-less, there are also plans to allow Xbox One owners to trade in their existing games on disc for digital downloads. The reason for such a drastic move is to get the price of the Xbox One lower and ensuring its under $200 (approximately R3,000).
While Microsoft may allow Xbox One owners to trade their games on discs for digital downloads, it’s not an entirely new service. Sony had a similar program for its PSP users in Japan during the launch of the PS Vita, unfortunately though it never saw the light of day outside of that country.
Also, if you’re looking to get a new Xbox One that can play games without having to go online or worry about Microsoft’s servers being unavailable, you may just be in luck as another Xbox One S variant is set to be in the works that ships with a disc drive.
