Will I need to buy my disk games again with the Xbox series S?

No. If you buy games digitally you don't need a disk. They were just noting that a Series S will only work with digital games, but a Series X can use both digital and disks.

You would have to purchase them digitally in order to play them on a Series S.

Any external drive wouldnt work

One it needs to be the same speed as xbox x series

A dvd usb drive wont read bluray disks

And at the expense of a bluray reader plus the additional hardware you might as well buy an x series

Why would you buy something you dont need if you need to read disks

There is huge difference between x and s

And S ISNT DESIGNED FOR DISKS

And the software would refuse it

3 the s series downloads have lower file sizes since its less capable

And yes the servera detect this

So you dont need 4k files

You do realize you only have a 512gig ssd in the s series right? And thr cpu and gpu arent the same aa the x series because of the limited hardware in the s seriea the downloads are smaller

If you want disks buy the right product

If you are talking about xbox one disk games that have been installed no those don't apply to xbox series s

Only affects digital ones for series s

You need an xbox series x and the disk to confirm you on the gamws

Are you talking about a digital install or a disk install ?

If disk install then it won't work on the xbox series s you need the digital copy either buy one or get gamepass

Only digital copies work on serirs s
