GAME denies report that it’s set to stop selling physical, er, games, aside from pre-orders

UK retail chain GAME, somewhere you’ve probably bought at least one title from over the years if you live in Sadness Island, has denied a report that it’s set to move away from actually selling physical games in-store.

The report in question, from Gfinity Esports, claimed that the move would see folks only have the option of picking up physical games or hardware that they’ve already pre-ordered, or have bought online via GAME’s website and elected to have shipped to a nearby store.

Frasers Group, GAME’s current owner, has denied the report’s contents in a statement to VG247, saying: “This reporting is categorically not true. GAME continues to support the physical gaming market, offering a wide-range of physical games, hardware, software, accessories and digital gift cards, in stores and online.”
