Amazon is restocking the PlayStation 5 again — here's how you can get one
TL;DR: On March 30 at 11 a.m. ET, Amazon Prime members will have the opportunity to secure a PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console during the merchant's limited restock. Just refresh your browser when the stock drops and hope that you're one of the lucky few.
Yup. It's happening again — the PlayStation 5 is about to get a restock at Amazon. You know how this tends to go, so get your browsers ready and your clicking fingers warmed up, because it's about to be a mad dash to the finish.
On March 30 at 11 a.m. ET, Amazon Prime members will have the opportunity to purchase a PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console (yes, it's only the disc-less version, so if you want that disc drive you can totally ignore this). All you have to do is be quick enough to add it to your cart when the fresh stock is added, and you should be in the clear. We're sending you all the luck and good vibes.
The PlayStation 5 has been out in the wild for over a year now, and it's still basically impossible to get thanks to microchip shortages and scalper bots. The result has been a hectic, everyone-for-themselves race to snag one whenever they go back in stock (which doesn't happen all that often). Even then, only a lucky few end up taking one home when it's all said and done. Hopefully that's you.
Set your alarms — the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition will be restocked and available to Amazon Prime members on March 30 at 11 a.m. ET.
