Since its release, PlaYStation 5 stock has been low, so it's impossible to go to the store and just order one. You have to make a reservation and wait several months for it to be your turn, or resort to second-hand and resale. This scarcity has meant that titles like God of War: Ragnarok and Horizon: Forbidden West have to also be made for PS4 to have better launch figures, since the number of PS5 consoles sold does not justify it being an exclusive.
Now, after almost two years since its launch, it seems that it is starting to be easier to buy one. And it is not only because of the experience of a few, but more and more new units are being sold, which is a clear indicator that it is improving and its production is stabilizing.
Soon it will be really easy to buy a PS5
According to Christopher Dring of GamesIndustry, the stock of PS5 consoles appears to be improving at the same rate in the US as it is in the UK. The console is now in the top spot for revenue in both markets. He adds that the Nintendo Switch still outsells in terms of gross units.
It is the first time this has happened, and it is a clear indicator that there are many more PlayStation 5 consoles being sold, and the only explanation is that there is finally more stock. It is ruled out that people have suddenly started buying in greater quantity because it has always been out of stock in stores and more income cannot be generated if there is no more stock to sell.
Other users who have put their experiences on ResetERA they affirm that consoles are already beginning to be sold directly in stores, and that there are already two times in which the stock of the console in PlayStation Direct (the website to reserve the console directly from the manufacturer) survives beyond the night in the that is available. Of course still far from normal availability in which it is ensured that if you go to the store there will be units. Most likely for this Christmas it will be a simple task to get the console and with it, more PS5 games will remain exclusive by already having a large enough console pool.
A shame not being able to buy a PS5 console... stock is not available. And the overpricing of resellers is terrible
Shame.. at this point in the year 22, already seeing it came out two years ago..🤷♂️
