PS5 restock: Game has a second wave of PS5 stock, but it won't last long

Update 2: More stock is now available at Game, but don't expect much. Whatever stock is available is made up of cancelled orders from today's earlier stock drop, but it's well worth seeing if you can snag a bundle before they're gone for good.

Update: Game's latest PS5 restock has now officially sold out. A tweet from the company's official Twitter account confirmed that stock has been snapped up, but to keep an eye on Game's website for future stock updates. We've been consistently tracking every PS5 stock drop in the UK, so make sure you stay tuned to TechRadar so you don't miss out.

It's been a few weeks, but the latest PS5 restock is now live at Game, who has been one of the more reliable retailer in the UK for PS5 stock drops. Game is selling both the PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition separately, but a number of bundles are also on offer, some of which include the excellent Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart or an extra DualSense Controller.

Even though the PS5 is available to purchase on its own for £449.99 and the PS5 Digital Edition is £359.99, we strongly suggest opting for a bundle. Bundles tend to stay in stock longer, as demand isn't as high due to the inflated price. While the idea of getting a cap and a T-shirt with your PS5 may seem pointless, it's honestly your best bet if you really want PS5.

As usual, Game's website has a queuing system in place and you'll need to complete one of those annoying "I'm not a robot" tests before you can join the queue. Wait times will vary depending on how early you got in the queue, and there's no guarantee that stock will be available once your wait time is up. However, it's worth being diligent and sticking it out until the end as we have seen people have success, despite having to wait a while.

It's important to note that these orders are pre-orders, with the console expected to ship on July 21. Those who opt for Priority Insured delivery can get the console a little earlier.

PS5 bundles in stock at Game
Game has a wide selection of PS5 bundles available, but they won't last long. The console can be purchased on its own for the regular price, but these are likely to sell out almost instantly. You'll have more luck trying to pick up a bundle, then, so go for that if you really want to secure a PS5.

The PS5 continues to be one of the most popular products of 2021, and retailers are struggling to provide enough stock to eager consumers who are desperate to own Sony's next-gen console.

Sony has admitted that supply may continue to be restricted into 2022 due to high demand and the ongoing global semiconductor shortage, so we expect stock to remain constrained throughout the year.

If you do miss out on Game's latest PS5 restock or simply want to know where to buy PS5 quickly, you'll find all the links to buy PS5 at various retailers below, including the PS5 Digital Edition. Keep checking these links as you never know when more consoles will hit the shelves.

It's likely that more PS5 consoles will appear throughout 2021, so we'd recommend not paying over the odds to scalpers as Sony is committed to delivering 10 million PS5s this year. That means sooner or later, supply will comfortably meet demand.
