UPDATE: The PS5 could drop at Very, BT and Smyths Toys soon. Read on for more information.
We’re now in 2022, and somehow the PlayStation 5 (PS5), which launched over a year ago in November 2020, is still difficult to buy in the UK, both online and in-store. Supply problems and a worldwide chip shortage sparked by the coronavirus pandemic have caused the production of Sony’s games console to slow to a crawl.
But if it’s your New Year’s resolution to finally get your hands on one, fear not, because the IndyBest team is here to help. December was the best month for restocks on record, with a whopping 53 drops taking place at Currys, PlayStation Direct, Game, BT and AO. While it’s been a slow start to January, with us only seeing drops at AO and EE, as well as small independent retailers like Ebuyer and The Game Collection, most retailers are likely still recovering and recuperating their stock levels, so we’re hoping for bigger and better things as January progresses.
