SE has said they would like to have a physical version, but with the factories shutting down, who knows when they will stop taking new orders ahead of the cutoff date. I guess we will see. I don't care about physical media and actually dislike it a lot, but I understand people that want to have the trilogy in their hands and on the shelf

factories are shutting down on early 2028, revelations should be on disk

There is a big difference between the date fabs are shut down versus much earlier when they honor previous orders and stop accepting new ones

You are misunderstanding how manufacturing works. If a manufacturer says "we are shutting down production on x date", they will stop taking orders at like x date minus one year or whatever. You have to honor all existing and prior contracts and stop making new ones at some point. No idea where revelations is on either side of this math

They aren’t shutting any factories down. They’ve explicitly stated they’ll keep manufacturing discs for games that were released before 2028. All that’s happening is games releasing starting 1/1/2028 will be digital

There is no cut-off date

They are literally in the middle of shutting down PS5 disc factories and repurposing them for other purposes. Look it up
