UPDATE: After lasting almost three hours, EB Games looks to have now sold out. I believe this is the longest that the PS5 has lasted in stock since the first batch of pre-orders a year ago. There’s set to be some big shipments coming into Australia over the coming weeks.
For the first time in months you can currently pre-order a PS5 at EB Games.
You’ll need to pre-order it online for $749.95 (right here) and put down a $200 deposit. EB Games is advising that shipments will take place in October, which is a while away, but definitely worth getting your name on the list.
As far as we know, stores are close to fulfilling their current list of pre-orders, so hopefully these come in earlier. You’ll need to pick your store to click and collect from.
We’ve heard that larger shipments are starting to hit Australia this week, which is great for signs of this to come.
