GameStop, GAME, Walmart Canada, and Sony are taking more PS5 pre-orders on September 25
It’s been a struggle to secure a PlayStation 5 in time for the mid-November launch, and we’re gonna keep on struggling for months. If you missed the chaotic first evening of pre-orders, your odds are dwindling, but they aren’t at zero. A few retailers are planning to open orders back up on September 25.
- In the US, GameStop will have “further quantities of PS5 consoles” online at GameStop.com and in-store.
- In Canada, Walmart will offer more PS5 pre-orders online only at Walmart.ca “late tomorrow morning EST.”
- And in the UK, GAME will sell a “limited stock of the PS5 coming tomorrow late morning” online only at GAME.co.uk.
Assuming this goes about as quickly and painfully as the last round, you’ll want to have your account of choice primed and ready to go. If you’re hoping to land a PlayStation 5 Digital Edition in 2020, that has increasingly felt like a pipe dream. Be prepared to fork over full price for the disc-compatible big boy. There’s no room for hesitation at this point. Scarcity – and the perception of scarcity – has taken over.
The retailers didn’t specify an exact start time, so you’ll want to keep tabs on @Wario64 and pray.
Users on ResetEra have reported that Sony is offering another round of direct-to-consumer PS5 pre-orders on September 25. If you registered way back when, be on the lookout for a potential email soon.
