PS5 Restock Shortage Could Last Until 2022 - Here's Your Best Hope This Week

PS5 Restock Shortage Could Last Until 2022 - Here's Your Best Hope This Week
The PS5 restock news today is grim, with Sony execs officially stating that the shortage of the new console will likely continue through 2022. But, there's good news if you're the persistent type: our PS5 restock Twitter tracker, Matt Swider, has been able to help 20.000 people find a next-gen console, according to his last count on Monday, May 10. He will send you a push-notification if you follow their Twitter account and activate notifications - as soon as stores like Best Buy, Walmart, Target, and GameStop in the US have the PS5 in stock. This is what we think for the rest of the week.

When will the PS5 be restocked again?

We do not expect a restock of the PS5 today, Monday, May 10, barring the possibility that SonyDirect you could restart your virtual queue. No one has sources from Sony's official retail store for the PlayStation brand, and it doesn't really matter. Sony creates a virtual waiting room before opening its virtual queue to purchase the PS5, providing plenty of time to access that virtual line. It just hasn't since April 20. Instead, we focus for the rest on Objective y GameStop, as the two US retailers did not restock PS5 last week. Less than a week ago, on Thursday, we saw the two Best Buy y Walmart come together to launch their PS5 inventory. We are typically notified in advance of a Target PS5 restock from both of our sources, who help us verify stock levels at individual Target stores and warehouses, as well as Jake Randall's corporate sources. Every PS5 target restock has been accurately revealed in 2021, as employees like to make sure players are notified of their first PS5 releases. This is essentially the opposite of what happens with an Amazon PS5 restock, where sources are much harder to find in the business. the Antonina The PS5 restocking of the PS5 Disc console is expected to be the next among next-gen consoles, smaller but reliable stores, every week. It's the longest period the retailer has gone without having the € 5 PlayStation 499 in stock as part of a more expensive plan. It has already offered the PS5 Digital on two different PS5 restock dates. Other quiet stores, in addition to Sony Direct, include Newegg, Costco y Sam's club, but we also follow these retailers.

Walmart PS5 Restock Date

The next Walmart PS5 restock date could be Thursday, May 13, according to Matt Swider, the PS5 restock tracker. The largest retailer in the United States didn't hesitate to launch the Sony console on Thursday around 3 pm EDT, but it doesn't always have fresh stock every week. That said, Matt usually gets advance notice from Walmart officials if there's a massive PS5 restock. The last time this happened was on March 18, when the retailer ran a two-hour restock marathon divided into 12 different waves. Here's one of the Walmart PS5 restock alerts we previously sent to Matt's subscribers:

Best Buy PS5 restock date

Best Buy changed the restocking time for the PS5 last week after a long six-week hiatus since launching new console inventory on Friday. It took us by surprise, but Matt Swider was able to send an alert within the first minute of resupply. Hundreds of his followers have been able to buy the Sony console. But that leaves us with a question: will Best Buy restock on Thursday, May 13 at the same time in the afternoon, or will it go back to that Friday with a PS5 restock date of May 14? Or will it go in a completely different direction and confuse us more? When it's Friday, we can often ask our Best Buy warehouse sources to check stock levels, and we often see Best By restock between 12:00 pm and 4:00 pm EDT. Here's our Best Buy PS5 restock follow-up alert starting Thursday, May 6:

PS5 restock target date

The next Target PS5 restock date we're tracking is Wednesday May 12, however we haven't received official confirmation that inventory will be sufficient this week. We usually know this by Monday night, so we'll have some info on Twitter with YouTuber Jake Randall. Target operates differently than other stores in the United States in that it ships PS5 stock to individual stores in advance. While this is an online-only PS5 version, Target offers same-day store pickup. Target PS5 restock time is almost always the same: somewhere between 7am and 9am EDT, with the most consistent PS5 delivery time being 7:40am EDT. This means our West Coast followers will see a Twitter restock alert at 4:40 am EDT from us, but it also means there's a lot less competition in the long-term stores in California than in broader New York City. Here's what our Target PS5 restock alert looked like last time (April 28th example shown):

GameStop PS5 Bundle Restock Date

We're poised for a GameStop PS5 restock this week simply because, on average, we see the retailer offering PlayStation 5 stock a week and a half after the last drop. Since GameStop's last PS5 restock took place on Wednesday, April 28, we now need to see what the possible Sony PS5 Disc and Digital Edition bundles are.

Antonline PS5 Restock Date

There's good news regarding the upcoming PS5 restock at Antonline: it's overdue for the PS5 Disc Edition restock, and has a next-gen restock every week, according to its own official statements in the past. The retailer has not let us down yet. Of course, that sometimes means it'll be a restock for the Xbox Series X, but it's been weeks since Antonline had to buy a bundle of PS5 Disc games and accessories. It is much more likely to hide the inventory of this version of the PS5 for this week. Time will tell. Know this: Although Antonline is reliable, it does. Sell on PS5 in three minutes or less. Unlike many retailers who play with the add to cart button by turning it on and off, a refill of the Antonline PS5 essentially opens the floodgates. This makes it very important to subscribe to PS5 restock alerts. Here's what our Antonline PS5 resupply alerts look like:
