PS5 restocks on Sony Direct and Walmart have happened in the afternoon. As for the fans, this short time of the console availability is a golden opportunity for them--but not for everyone. For that, we would be sharing the recent updates about the retail stores' console drops.

As we head to Amazon Prime Day, Target is also seen to be the next potential outlet for the PlayStation 5 stock release. We are expecting more of the restocks that would come soon, that's why we would be tackling the latest news about the PS5 supplies before the weekend.

PS5 Restock Updates on Sony, Walmart, and Other Stores

In an interview with WIRED last month, Jim Ryan, the CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment said that they are working hard for the fans who want to have a console. Over the summer, Ryan said that they have been focused on the production of the console. He hopes that during the second half of 2021, the supply and demand of the PS5 would return to their normal state.

In the meantime, here's a short recap of what happened recently among some known stores:

• PlayStation Direct: On Thursday, June 17, the store had released the most awaited console restock. However, as we always know, the supplies in this shop only lasted for a few minutes.

• Walmart: After the small Walmart sale on Monday, June 14, at midnight, the store has finally dropped another round of PS5 stocks this time. In the afternoon, only the digital version of the PS5 console was available. Surprisingly, Walmart has successfully launched a follow-up for its Monday sale quickly.

• Target: Previously, there were leaks online that made rounds on Twitter about Target's restock. Well, it just came in time that the store unveiled its inventory full of PS5s on June 16. Some users went online and immediately purchased the console.

• GameFly: Surprisingly, Gamefly has been a sleeper for the fans who are craving to obtain the highly-coveted gaming console. We haven't mentioned its "Returnal" bundle that appeared on June 7 for those who are already members for more than 30 days.

• Best Buy: The shop, as always, is regarded to be one of the fast-selling stores out there. On June 3, a shocker was presented to the fans when a PS5 restock happened. However, as expected, they did not last long.
