From our sources, we know that Target stores received more stock for the PlayStation 5 (PS5) and Xbox Series X consoles. Although Target Corporate has not revealed a date for the upcoming releases, here is’ everything you need to know.
In case you didn’t know, we’ve been reporting successfully on Target’s drops since December. We reported on the Target Fall on January 20th, December 29th and December 21st. Our Discord community also predicted and reported the Target Fall on February 2nd.
According to a source who holds a senior position at Target, stores have begun to receive inventory. During the January 20 downfall, stores started taking inventory around January 19 and Target immediately went down the next morning.
That can mean, we will possibly see a drop in destination anywhere between tonight, that is, February 14 (ie 3 am to 8 am EST) and tomorrow. If not, we can wait two more days. Usually, the target is known no to keep stock. This means that as soon as they receive the stock, they release the consoles for sale.
As I wrote in a previous article, “stores are receiving very little inventory and therefore we cannot expect much from Target at this time. Talking to several PS5 trackers, I can say that the following drops would be comparatively weaker than what we saw in the past. Therefore, it is better not to have high expectations and, at the same time, look for an opportunity. “
How to buy PS5 from Target
Target sells the PS5 online only. You will have to buy the console online and visit the store for a pickup or a drive-up. There are no walk-ins.
The normal time when the target falls is between 3 am – 7 am ET. Be better prepared from 5:00 am to 7:00 am Eastern time, as Target took the PS5 down several times during those two hours.
