After people started lining up at stores in America for PS5 pre-orders earlier this week, Sony has confirmed on Geoff Keighley’s DualSense hands-on video stream that PS5 pre-order details will be announced in advance of them going live, so gamers don’t need to worry that it will come out of nowhere.
PlayStation’s Head of Marketing said: “It’s safe to say that we will let you know when PS5 pre-orders will happen. It’s not going to happen with a minute’s notice. We are going to let you know when you’ll be able to pre-order a PS5, so don’t feel like you have to run out and line up anywhere until you receive official notice on how that will work”.
There’s still quite a bit about the PS5 that we don’t know including the release date, price and obviously when pre-orders will go live.
