Domino's UK has joined the online conversation surrounding the recently announced physical edition of GTA 6 with a satirical social media post that has gone viral.
The pizza chain shared an image styled as an 'official statement,' joking that it would stop making physical pizzas and switch entirely to 'digital pizzas' from April 1, 2027. The post was a tongue-in-cheek response to criticism over reports that GTA 6's physical edition will include a digital activation code instead of a game disc. The mock statement read: "In response to trends in the gaming industry, as of 1st April 2027 Domino's UK will cease production of physical pizzas and shift to production of digital pizzas only."

The joke references growing debate among gamers over the value of physical game editions that no longer include a disc. While buyers receive a physical box, the package reportedly contains only a digital activation code, meaning the game must still be downloaded.

The statement is not genuine and was shared purely as a satirical marketing post. The mention of April 1, widely recognised as April Fools' Day, further signals that the announcement is intended as a joke.
The humorous post quickly gained traction on X, with many users praising Domino's UK for its timely take on one of the gaming community's biggest talking points surrounding GTA 6.
