The PS5 will Only be Sold Online on Launch Day

Which means … DO NOT queue up at the store during launch day. Stores will not sell them to you if you haven’t pre-ordered. It’s ONLY available online.

Taken from Engadget … If you haven’t been able to lock in a PlayStation 5 pre-order, don’t plan to line up at a local retailer in the hopes of snagging the console on launch day. All day-one PS5 sales will be online-only via Sony’s retail partners.


The company says this is to help keep retailers, staff and consumers safe amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The move applies to all regions on the PS5’s launch day: November 12th or 19th, depending on where you are. Sony earlier confirmed this would be the case in Japan as well.

“Please don’t plan on camping out or lining up at your local retailer on launch day in hopes of finding a PS5 console for purchase,” Sony Interactive Entertainment’s Sid Shuman wrote in a blog post. “Be safe, stay home, and place your order online.”
