US PS5 Console Restock Update

Today, January 18, 2022, there’s yet another opportunity for eager customers to register their interest in buying a PS5 directly from PlayStation. PSN members in the US, UK, Germany, France, Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg can register here to show their interest. Ensure you have email notifications on so that you don’t miss the crucial message, as stock will definitely not be hanging around!

Ebay is another option for those who want to buy a PS5 right now. While there are many listings from greedy folks charging extortionate premium prices, there are also some better deals to be had. Filter by “Buy It Now” and “Newly Listed” to find the hottest deals. It’s also worth using a price cap to stop any ridiculous listings from showing up.

There are also new PS5 drops at US retailers anticipated for this week. Every week of 2022 has had restocks so far and the proven @PS5restocks_etc appears confident about restocks in “the days ahead.”

  • Target – Drop occurred on January 6
  • Walmart – Restock occurred online on January 13
  • Amazon – Restock not yet announced
  • Best Buy – Surprise drop occurred on January 5
  • GameStop – Restock at stores on January 14
  • BJs – Drop happened on January 12
  • PS Direct – PSN users can register for a chance to buy.

The last PS5 restock happened at select GameStop stores on January 14. Prior to that, there was an online drop from Walmart on January 13.

US PS5 Accessories Restock Update

Though PS5s continue to be mostly out of stock, PS5 accessories are a different story. There are many interesting peripherals that promise to enhance the experience of anyone lucky enough to have secured a next-gen PlayStation system.

Which UK stores have PS5 stock for today, January 18?

PS5 Restock January 18

For those in the UK, the best place to buy a PS5 today, January 18, is Ebay. However, UK PSN members can register their interest to buy a PS5 directly from the PlayStation website here.

As mentioned, Ebay is worth a look, so long as you implement filters to avoid the ridiculously high scalper pricing. Sorting by “Buy It Now” and “New Listings,” as well as using a price limit, will help cut through the terrible deals. At the time of writing, “Used” and “Refurbished” PS5s are selling for £50-80 above RRP. That’s not too bad, provided you can verify the seller hasn’t voided the system’s warranty and that there is nothing wrong with the console.

According to @PS5StockAlertUK, Argos is the one to watch in the coming weeks, as stock is expected between January 25-28. Stay tuned for an update on that as soon as we learn more.

Once you’ve hunted down a PS5, get caught up on the best PS Plus discounts for today. Highlights include Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Crysis Remastered.

Hopefully folks can grab a PS5 in time for the “major third-party PlayStation exclusive” that is rumored to be revealed this year!

If you’ve got the stomach for it, the 100-hour PSVR MMO Zenith: The Last City is coming out soon.
