It’s a good week to find a PS5 restock, going by the signs so far, with both Amazon and ShopTo having had a new PS5 consoles in earlier this morning. However, when we checked both retailers were sold out, meaning the appetite for Sony’s console is still very high and restocks don’t appear to be flush with significant amounts of PS5 units.
Following these restocks, we’d not be surprised to see the likes of Game and Currys get more stock in, so we’d suggest you check out the retailer links below. Make sure to bookmark this page and regularly refresh it to be in with a good chance of securing a PS5 restock.
We’ve also collated a list of alternative retailers that could have PS5 stock. If you’ve had no luck with the main retailers, these are very much worth a look. And take a look at our PS5 restock tips for beating the bots and securing Sony’s new console in the U.K.

Nevertheless, we are committed to bringing you up-to-the-minute information on all restocks as soon as they happen.

Where buy PS5 in the UK: Tips and tricks
Get prepared: Make sure you have all the right payment card details and two-factor authentication available and to hand when you find a PS5 ready to buy. Units can go so fast that if you’re rushing around trying to find your credit card you could miss your chance to secure a PS5 order.
Select a retailer: As you can see from our list above, there are plenty of retailers to choose from, which can actually make the whole process of buying a PS5 a bit complicated. We suggest you select a couple of major retailers like Walmart and Amazon and keep an eye on their PS5 landing pages.
Sign up to stock alerts: Plenty of retailers offer to alert you to when they have PS5 stock in. We suggest you sign up to those services for the retailers that are offering them.
Find the right product page: It might sound obvious, but make sure you’re on the actual buying page for the PS5 or the PS5 Digital Edition. If you’re on a landing page, you might end up missing the moment new stock arrives.
Sign in to retailers: Make sure you sign in to any retailers you might already have an account with. This will make things a lot faster when buying a PS5 if you spot one on sale. And speed is of the essence today.
Keep refreshing and don’t give up: It can be a little demoralizing trying to find PS5 stock when everywhere looks sold out. But regularly refresh product pages to see what pops up; you might get lucky. And also keep checking back here for any PS5 stock updates.
If you still haven’t had any luck getting a console, you can always check our stock widget below. If any other retailers get PS5 stock in throughout the day it’ll show up there. So if you see something jump on that opportunity as soon as you can.
