It’s been a long time coming, but Amazon has finally announced that its next PS5 restock will take place today, August 8. The good news is that you no longer need to be an Amazon Prime member in order to purchase a console, but, this latest restock is only open to those who previsouly registered their details as you will need an exclusive link to buy the PS5.
“[The] next wave of invites will be sent on 8/8/2022 to qualifying customers,” reads a message on the PS5 store page at Amazon (opens in new tab). This same message is repeated on the page for the recent PS5 Horizon Forbidden West bundle (opens in new tab). Both should be available to buy today, then, if you are one of the lucky chosen ones.
There’s no information on what time these invites will be sent out, although previous restock events have taken place from 11am ET / 8am PT. Your best option is to keep an eye on your inbox throughout the day. Just don’t smash that refresh button too hard. You will want to be quick, though, as even if Amazon says the link you receive is valid for 72 hours, we’re almost certain that the console will sell out way before the end of that window.
Today’s PS5 restock at Amazon
It’s been a long wait for this moment, as Amazon hasn’t had Sony’s latest console available to buy for almost two months. Many other US retailers have been quiet lately, too, suggesting that there are bigger restocks on the horizon. After the recent in-store restock at GameStop, there’s now strong rumours that Walmart will sell the console later this month. More chances are coming, then, if you aren’t successful today.
