PlayStation 5 restock sales, at Best Buy, Amazon, Walmart, GameStop, or Target

UPDATE: Best Buy has confirmed that it will be selling PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X consoles in select stores today, September 23, from 7.30am local time:

Blue Shirts at participating stores will begin handing out tickets at 7:30 a.m. local time that morning. They will ask you which console you wish to buy, and hand out one ticket per purchasing customer in line. If you receive a ticket, you will be guaranteed the opportunity to purchase the console for which you have received a ticket.

Here we go again - the new PlayStation 5 is officially released on sale, but you can't get availability before Walmart, Best Buy, Target or Amazon restock the batch. At the same time, pre-Black Friday deals on PlayStation 5 games and paraphernalia are upon us, and you are at a loss.

Fret not, as retailers are running a PlayStation 5 restock update posting game that lists the fresh batches release date and time as soon as they get them. As you can see, the last PS5 restock times were at PlayStation Direct, and a big drop came to Amazon these days, so hopefully you managed to get in on the action. Sorry, the Walmart PlayStation 5 restock turned out to be a dud.

Even then, thieves have been jacking Amazon's PlayStation 5 shipments, so you'd better both hurry and arm yourself with patience, as, right now, PlayStation 5 availability is guaranteed only on eBay at a higher price.
