If you’ve missed out on getting your hands on a PlayStation 5 this week you could be in luck – as there will be a few chances next week and beyond.
Gamers have found it incredibly difficult to get their hands on Sony’s newest console following its launch last year.
This week several retailers have dropped stock – but to fans’ disappointment they have sold out almost instantly.
This week Argos, GAME and Amazon dropped stock online – but stock sold out within minutes.
And just this morning Smyths dropped surprise stock – but it has since been confirmed to be out of stock.
Luckily, Twitter tipster PS5StockAlertUK has shared some exciting news regarding new stock arriving next week.
The Twitter user revealed that GAME Uk will release new PS5 stock on Tuesday, February 23 – so put that in your diary.
The user said: “GAME UK is set to go live with a PS5 drop this Tuesday 23rd February. This alone and the Smyths Toys drop explain that retailers have received or are receiving new shipments already. Let the late February/early March restock season begin!”
The same user explained how there will be a second wave of restocks, so this is really the time to be on your toes if you want to bag yourself a PS5.
PS5StockAlertUK said: “Thank you for all the kind comments on the previous tweet. I have some good news. I've been tracking retailers dropping on Excel, and Smyths Toys dropping is the start of another restock season when the current one hasn't even ended. We could see new drops possibly next week!”
The user attached the spreadsheet, which you can see below.
Many gamers are also speculating whether Argos could restock as early as next week.
One Twitter user said: “Argos should be getting more on Monday into their distribution centres so expect them to be ready for collection from stores by the end of next week."
Meanwhile, one fan on social media seems to have crunched the numbers and come up with the exact time stock drops at various retailers.
This should help you in knowing exactly when you should be ready to click that “add to basket” button.
They are:
- Argos - 1am
- John Lewis - 5am
- Amazon - 6am to 7am, sometimes 11am
- Game - 8am to 9am
- AO - 10am
- Very - 11am or 1pm
