Let’s put ourselves in situation. You have not been able to put a PlayStation 5 in your name in the days when it has been available to reserve at the many authorized dealers, and your plan was to get up early and sneak into some of the local stores to go for a unit. soon as possible. Error.
How to buy a PlayStation 5
Sony has released an official statement of an urgent nature and intended for all international divisions with which it has confirmed that there will be no units in stock in any store in the world, since only online orders will be handled on the launch day of the console.
The idea is that users who have reserved a console, wait for the order to arrive home or, failing that, schedule an appointment with the store where they reserved it. The reason for this organization? Avoid unnecessary movements of users, since the waves of those interested could saturate the capacity of many stores, endangering the health of customers and employees in these difficult times that we are going through COVD-19.
Stay home and wait for your console
The giant encourages all those who do not have a console to place their orders through the internet, however, the current situation is completely disconcerting in relation to the stock of PlayStation 5, since nobody knows for sure if extra consoles will arrive at the warehouses beyond the reserve quota that have been made so far.
That said, if at this point you did not reserve your PS5 and now you are heating up before so much hype and with the first impressions that begin to appear in some media, it may already be too late to fight for a unit with which you can play the very same November 19th.
At the moment, stores such as Media Markt, Amazon, Game or other distributors have the “Sold Out” sign hanging on both PlayStation 5 models, so we do not know exactly if this situation will change on the same day 19 with the arrival of new stock ready to be sold.
A very limited stock
Sony itself already warned that the launch of PlayStation 5 was going to be quite complicated in terms of stock, and due to the immense demand that had been generated around the console, there was even talk of a possible shortage of consoles for the period of Christmas. If so, getting a PlayStation 5 could become quite an odyssey, and considering that the distribution could be limited to online sales and not in-store, everything could become more complicated for more than one user.
