The PS5 is only available a few times a week – if it arrives – and even so, the latest generation Sony console tends to sell out in minutes. Players looking to buy PlayStation 5 need to keep an eye on retailers and be prepared when stock is available.
Trying to buy a PS5 console may remain difficult for a few more months until Sony is able to increase production to meet demand. Until consoles are widely available on retailers’ shelves, PlayStation fans will have to keep trying to get lucky with online releases.
PS Direct PS5 Refueling
PlayStation Direct released a limited number of PS5 consoles on Tuesday and sold out in an hour. Players were alerted to refueling by @ Wario64 on Twitter, who shared a link to the PS Direct queue almost 40 minutes before it opened.
However, PS Direct has already launched stocks on consecutive days, so if you missed PS Direct yesterday, it would be worth checking out the site frequently for the rest of the week. Enable notifications for @ Wario64 and other dedicated Twitter accounts to be notified when the link to the queue goes live.

Target PS5 Refueling
PlayStation fans should keep an eye on Target this week as it looks like the text on Target’s PS5 page has changed. Sometimes, a change in the text of a website is followed by a replenishment. Although nothing is confirmed, it is worth checking the Target frequently in the coming days.
If and when PS5 inventory is available, consoles will be limited to one per customer and will only be available with drive-up or pick-up. The Target website allows customers to search for stocks within a 50 mile radius, so players may have to drive to pick up their PS5.
Check the PS5 refueling on the target.
Walmart PS5 Refueling
The PS5 is sold out at Walmart, although the console is still showing on the site after the last refueling. Walmart launched more PS5 consoles last week and warned customers in advance, so stay on top of Walmart’s latest updates to be ready when the retailer has more inventory.
