It technically might be on the disc in some cases and just needs to be activated, but the code is useless if you don't have access to the PSN.
I'm listing all games with dlc on disc (primary thread purpose), but also listing all games with dlc on a vouncher seperately on a 2nd post as an avoid section of sorts.

That's why it doesn't make sense to include games that launch with minor add-ons via download codes. We shouldn't be avoiding games that include 99.9% of the game on disc just because they happen to include a download code for a little extra.

That section should be for "Game of the Year Editions" or "Complete Editions" that include the same disc as previous versions and have download codes for everything else.

Games likes Assassin's Creed Origins, Dragon Quest Builders, and Dragon Quest Builders 2 are not rereleases (like the section is labeled) so they should not be included.

Fair point, some of them I wasn't aware were launch releases. I'll work on creating a separate section for them, "launch discs that come with dlc codes" or something like that.

No Man's Sky Beyond edition has the updates at the point it was released, but it was in a buggy state. It has been updated multiple times already, so I wouldn't recommend it as a playable version of the game to own for posterity.

It would presumably reduce the amount of GB updates to be downloaded vs the launch disc, so that's a small benefit.

Thank you, updated with it added.

I had forgotten, but I have now separated them into 2 sections. Launch discs with dlc & re-releases with dlc. If I got any wrong, let me know.
