I have a copy of Detroit: Become Human on disc and I have the digital deluxe edition, which was bought through the store. I had already played the disc version before buying the digital version.

Since I have the disc version already: do I only have the bonus content or do I actually have the digital version too? Is it just because I have that version installed that I still have to use the disc to play?

If you buy a digital version of a game you already had on disc, it removes the requirement that you have the disc in the system to play. You would now own the digital version of the full game plus whatever bonus content came with the digital purchase.

  Actually, for me, I bought Trackmania on disc and a few months later, it came out on PS plus for free, but I click to start and it still says insert the disc.

  @GoneBoyGone Did you actually specifically get the PS+ free version? I did the exact same with Until Dawn and it worked fine for me.

  You shouldn't need to delete it, when you click on download through the store, PSN should detect that you don't have the digital copy and simply download the digital version, overwriting the disc required one. Should use the same saves and trophies.
