Funny story... (Gaming)
A guy at work bought a boxed copy of the PC version from the company store. Guess what was inside?
Not only was there no disc (just a key to redeem on origin), but the case didn't even have grooves to fit a disc. It was literally a worthless piece of plastic.
What exactly would be in it? The game is way too big to fit on a DVD, and PCs don't usually have Bluray drives.
Granted, they're not standard, but any site that lets you build one (Dell, HP, etc.) has it as an option.
Like, if you really want a to put out a physical SKU for retailers, just print those cards like XBL/PS+ use. It has to be cheaper then a useless case.
