To update: Best Buy is now sold out on PS5. Make sure to follow our PS5 refueling guide for the latest refueling information as soon as we get it.
Players eager to get their hands on the PS5 can have a great weekend start, thanks to Best Buy. The electronics retailer has stock of the PS5 now.
Best Buy has replenished the PS5 for the past five consecutive Fridays and has now increased to six with this latest refueling. This is likely to be the last major refueling of the PS5 of the week, as almost no resellers refuel on the weekend.
PS5: $ 499 at Best Buy
Sony’s flagship gaming machine, the PS5 is one of the most sought-after technology products today. For good reason, this powerful console features 4K visuals, an innovative DualSense controller and a 4K Blu-ray drive. Best Buy has the console in stock now. See Offer from ₹ 3,373 Approximate price
PS5 digital edition: $ 399 at Best Buy
The PS5 Digital Edition is the same great console, but without the 4K Blu-ray disc drive. This is a great choice for players who like digital games. Best Buy did not refuel the PS5 Digital Edition console last week, so a refueling is due. Since the normal PS5 is in stock, it can go into stock at any minute.

However, according to TechRadar sources, last Friday’s PS5 refueling was “extremely light” due to limited inventory. This was quite apparent, as the retailer sold PS5s even faster than normal and did not even replenish the PS5 Digital Edition at any time in the past week. So don’t wait for this refueling to take too long, you need to act fast if you want to protect a PS5.
Target replenished the PS5 yesterday, and rumors that Amazon will launch a massive PS5 refueling at some point persist. Best Buy replenished the Xbox Series X yesterday, so the retailer definitely didn’t stop this week. Especially now that the PS5 is replenished.
We’re keeping an eye on PS5 refills to find out where to buy a PS5 guide, so be sure to check the latest stock information as soon as we get it.
How to buy a PS5 at Best Buy
As with most retailers, setting up a Best Buy account in advance should be your first priority. You want to make sure that your payment details and address information are pre-saved in order to save precious time from your checkout, which can be the difference between securing a PS5 and leaving it empty-handed.
It is also important to note that Best Buy is not providing PS5 consoles at this time. Even if the ordering process is done online, you must opt for in-store pickup. So, if you don’t have a local Best Buy or don’t have the ability to reach the local store, Best Buy may not be the PS5 retailer for you.
YouTube inventory tracker Jake Randalme presented the best process for actually checking out with a PS5 at Best Buy. When refueling is taking place, refresh the product page until you see the yellow “add to cart” button or a gray “wait” button. If you see the latter, do not update, instead, wait for the button to change to the yellow “add to cart”.
As soon as you can add to the cart, you will see a message stating that the PS5 is no longer in stock. If this happens, you need to change your location to one that has the system in stock. Randall recommends that if the PS5 is sold out everywhere, leave the page as is and open a new one. Repeat the process described above until the “add to cart” button appears again, then go back to the original page you opened and try to choose a location again.
Best Buy, like many other retailers, is launching its PS5 stock in waves, so stay close even if the site initially shows sold out during a refueling window, as another opportunity to obtain a PS5 may appear. Investing some time in the process can be worthwhile, as other people may give up and lose their patience.
The retailer will also ask you to enter a code provided during the purchase process, you have the option to send it by text or email. Always choose the text, as it will appear almost instantly. Email codes can take a long time to appear or get lost in a spam filter, and when you retrieve them, the console is likely to be exhausted again.
