Xbox Disc to Digital Programme: Microsoft's reported 'Positron' feature could let gamers convert physical discs into digital licenses. Check all details

Microsoft is reportedly preparing an Xbox Disc to Digital Programme for August 2026. This feature will let players convert physical game discs into digital licenses. These digital licenses will be tied to their Microsoft accounts for broader access. The programme aims to bridge physical ownership with the company's digital gaming ecosystem. Original Xbox and Xbox 360 discs are unlikely to be supported by this initiative.
