TechXbox announces a feature to turn physical games into digital copies

Microsoft is introducing an Xbox disc-to-digital feature that lets players claim a digital entitlement for supported Xbox One and Xbox Series X disc games by inserting and launching the disc. Xbox Insiders will begin testing it on August 31, with a wider rollout in the following months. Publishers will determine which titles are supported, so the feature will initially cover only some games.
