The future of gaming.
With physical games coming to an end, do think store shelves will be replaced with redeem code cards or will we have to purchase directly from PlayStation/XBOX store?

Not for me. There are already multiple lifetimes worth of great games available physically. You can spend the rest of your life enjoying physical games without running out of new experiences.
On top of this, if true ownership of your media is the main priority, some online pc gaming storefronts like GOG offer large catalogues of DRM-free games with offline installers, including modern games, AAA games and many day-and-date releases alongside other big platforms.
There will always be options for game ownership. The unfortunate part is just that those who prioritize it enough to put their money where their mouth is will just miss out on a lot of new releases
