Update: And just like that, PS5 is sold out. By our count, this stock lasted roughly ten minutes, if not less. Getting a PS5 before the holidays is not going to be easy — but you can keep an eye on our PS5 stock guide for up-to-date information on where to buy the next-gen console.
Original Story: The PS5 is currently back in stock through the official PlayStation Direct channel. If you're in the US, this might be one of your best shots at getting a PS5 before the end of 2020.
At the time of writing, both the disc and digital versions of the PS5 are in stock, but you'll need to queue for them. Right now, the waiting time is over an hour — just follow the instructions on the official page and you'll be in with a chance.
You can click through to the disc version here, and the digital version here. Good luck!

Time for scalper bots to attack this stock..
Already out of stock. Got in the queue an hour ago just to check and it's gone 😢
Amazon UK are saying its in stock at Noon on Thursday. My friend had an email about it
@Broosh Same.
Why is Canada always getting the short end of the stick lmao
@TheFrenchiestFry
Uk as well we never got a chance to pre-order.
Game uk are saying they will have some o the day of launch but i can bet their website crashes and they all go in 45miniutes.

Is there some kind of an e-mail or schedule that was sent out by Sony that puts these stock times? I was on the direct store most of the morning checking for stock and then after doing some chores, checked back and "boom" 1 hour wait time.
Like, how do people know?! Or are there just bots out there scanning sites 24/7 until an Add to Cart button pops up.
Wow, just staying on sale for almost 10 minutes is progress. Before it seemed like a minute at best. Maybe there will be a chance to snag one of these things in the near future.
@GamingFan4Lyf that's what I'd like to know. I just happened to refresh the page randomly and got put into queue but by the time I got in, it was all over.
And as I fail to procure a console once more, Stockpile Thomas is nowhere to be found. If I have a heart of gold, I believe it was already taken from me 😔
Right when I was j u s t about to get it.
I wonder if there are some at Sony headquarters thinking
'Hmm we could have charged a little more for these'
I do think the pricing is right but someone in accounts will be thinking this.
I also think Sony should have done a deal with ebay and facebook not to resell PS5's for the next 6 months or so.
Or only sold the first batches to existing PS4 users and locked the console to their profile for a year.
I have a feeling that I won't be finding a PS5 in stores until around March of next year.
I checked the local used site here in canada and theres like 10 people sellig ps5s for like $1200 (and higher) some people have more than 1 system listed for sale
There are no consoles in Japan, of course!
I really wanted the PS5 at launch but that is it, I am gonna wait until the stock is enough (in 2 days releases in my region), because not to much chances to grab one day one. No problem, my PS4 still does the trick very well.
Seems like I'll have to wait until middle of next year to get it.
