If you haven’t been able to land Sony’s next-gen console yet, both Sony and Walmart are currently offering up another chance. Sony is once again selling the PlayStation 5 Horizon Forbidden West Bundle for $549.99, while Walmart is selling the same configuration for $549. If you’re not familiar with the package, the apt-titled Horizon Forbidden West Bundle comes with the disc-based PS5 as well as a digital code to download a copy of Guerrilla Games’ excellent Horizon Forbidden West. Best of all, unlike Sony’s recent restock events, you don’t need to enter an online queue to check out at either retailer — just log in with your PlayStation Network ID or Walmart credentials and check out (seriously).
While we obviously can’t guarantee you’ll be able to nab the console today, there are a few things you can do to maximize your chances. First off, remember that when purchasing a PS5 from Sony or Walmart, you’ll need to log in with your PlayStation Network ID or Walmart credentials. It’s wise, then, to have your username and password ready, and keep in mind that you can also only buy one console per account, regardless of which retailer you go with. Thankfully, this time around, you don’t have to wait in a virtual queue to make your purchase, which was once the case at both retailers.
To help you pass the time while waiting, why not start preparing for your new PS5 with some fun accessories and games? Here are a few we recommend:
Update September 9th, 1:48PM ET: Adjusted pricing and added details regarding Walmart availability.
Correction September 8th, 3:50PM ET: An earlier version of this article claimed you had to enter a virtual queue in order to purchase the PlayStation 5 Horizon Forbidden West bundle. There is no virtual queue, however, and bundles can be purchased from Sony directly. We regret the error.
