Where you can buy a PlayStation 5 - parents desperately scramble to get their hands on must-have Christmas gift

The long-awaited PlayStation 5 went on sale in the UK today at 8am and parents are already frantic they might not get their hands on one.

Previous sales of consoles such as its predecessor PS4 and XBox series X and S sold out in record time and early demand for the PS shows it threatens to do the same.

Some have been organised and lucky enough to pre-order one from GAME, however for others, today will be spent trawling internet sites to find somewhere to buy the console.

With added tier 4 restrictions coming into place in some areas of Scotland tomorrow and full lockdown restrictions already in force across England, online demand for the PS5 will already be high.

So where in the UK can you buy a PS5?

Amazon UK

Amazon will have the PlayStation 5 available to buy for for £499 as of 12pm today, so get your coffee and laptop at the ready!

The PlayStation 5 Digital Edition will also go on sale at the same time for £399.
