Capcom FY2026Q1: Console Sales Are 83% Digital, 17% Physical

Just wanted to point this out since the data shared in the other thread includes PC, which accounts for about 60% of all units sold according to the report.

The other 40% of the sales were on console (32.9% digital, 6.7% physical). If you extrapolate that makes for 17% physical sales overall on consoles.

Rather than some game changing new info, this data is broadly in line with previous reports of around 20% physical sales share on consoles.
