How to get PS5 if you don’t receive an invite
Usually after an invite-only PS5 restock, Sony tends to open up the virtual queue to the general public. However, this is not always guaranteed. (There have been cases where the entire retailer has sold out.) If there are additional consoles, a general public restocking will likely happen after the invite-only event ends, usually an hour or two after the original show starts. . Of course, you can bookmark our page and we’ll keep you updated with the latest PS5 restock news from Sony Direct and all major US retailers.
What do you do once you are on the waiting list
Once you are in the virtual queue, you will get an estimated waiting time. All wait times vary, and there’s a good chance you’ll have to wait “more than an hour”. If this is the case, do not despair. Your condition can change quickly and you may have a shorter waiting time than expected. For example, after waiting 20 minutes at a previous PS5 restock event, our time was reduced from “over an hour” to just 15 minutes.
Additionally, you may be asked to solve a captcha (a simple challenge/question to make sure you are not a bot). It usually requires you to select a radio box. As a result, you’ll want to make sure your browser tab stays prominent, because if it’s not, you might miss the captcha challenge and you might lose your place in the queue.
