The debate about the future of physical format in Xbox continues to grow, even more so after the Sony scandal and the nail they’ve put on the format starting January 2028. After rumors pointed to Project Helix, Microsoft’s next console, possibly including a disc drive, part of the community has decided to mobilize to try to keep this option.

The initiative has gained momentum in recent hours through Xbox Player Voice, the official portal where users can propose ideas and vote on features they’d like to see implemented in the Xbox ecosystem.

The community wants to exceed 10,000 votes

The proposal, titled “Allow Disc-Based Games with Project Helix“ (“Allow physical format games with Project Helix”), encourages Microsoft to maintain compatibility with disc-based games in the next Xbox generation. The community’s immediate goal is to exceed the 10,000 vote threshold, a figure that would give the proposal greater visibility within Microsoft’s official suggestion portal.

The debate about physical format has intensified in recent weeks, especially after various reports pointed to an increasingly digital future for the industry. Precisely for this reason, many players consider it important to convey their opinion directly to Microsoft through official channels.

You can vote now

  • Vote for Xbox Helix to have physical format support

For now, Microsoft has not confirmed Project Helix’s specifications or whether the console will finally include a disc drive. However, initiatives like this show that part of the community still considers physical format an important element of the Xbox experience.

Users who want to support the proposal can do so from Xbox Player Voice, where they just need to log in with a Microsoft account and cast their vote to contribute to the petition’s growing relevance.
