PS5 pre-orders sold out? Here’s What You Can Do
Pre-orders for PS5 are arriving in the US and UK today, just in time for the weekend. While you can still pick up PS5 pre-orders if you head to the GameStop in the US, all that nice UK stock has just run out. So, what can you do now to prepare for the next shipment?
Currys, Very and Game all launched new PS5 pre-orders this afternoon and, unsurprisingly, supplies ran out quickly. However, if you missed this second round of pre-orders, all is not lost. Keep a close eye on these retailers – if they have already received new orders from Sony, they will likely book more soon.
The best way to do this is to check out the quick links below for the latest updates as well as for a chance to get lucky and land on top of the next batch. That sounds unlikely, though, so your next task is to sign up for email notifications with any retailer and stay up to date through their Twitter accounts.
Here we got wind of new PS5 pre-order stock in the UK, so it’s a great way to keep track of your favorite stores.
GameStop recently announced that pre-orders for PS5 would be active again only in their physical stores today. That means you’ll have to hit the road now to get a pre-order, but if you’re not comfortable with that, we recommend keeping an eye on the other retailers below. New stock is available now, so it’s only a matter of time Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart list their own before delivery.
We’ve seen PS5’s pre-order stock bounce out of stock quite quickly, and after the first wave caused shoppers to panic, it seems Sony is looking to slowly clear its pre-order stock until launch day. If you’ve already secured yours, check out PS5 DualSense controller pre-orders and Pulse 3D headset pre-orders as well.
