Finding a gaming console nowadays can be laborious, especially because the stocks from the big retailers often sell out faster than expected. For those who want to purchase a PS5, anything can be a sort of a challenge before you get one.
If you miss the previous restock events for the PlayStation 5, you might want to participate in the recently-announced Sony competition. Maybe this is now your chance to own a console through the Treat Codes competition.
To get started, here's everything you need to know about Sony's upcoming event.
PS5 Demand Remains High
Tech Times reported last November 2021 that the console maker has been struggling to keep up with the surging demand of PS5--that's why it decided to cut its production for the units.
As a solution, it said that it would launch more PS4 units instead of the next-gen gaming machines.
Amid the global chip shortage, it even got harder for the company to produce enough supplies for the customers. Previously, analysts said that the companies would have difficulty distributing the consoles to the stores because of this ongoing problem.
Sony Launches Treat Codes Competition
According to a report by Geeky Gadgets, the said event will kick off in the next two weeks. The participants will be given until March 7 at 1 PM EST (10 AM PST) to search for the codes.
Speaking of codes, 14 unique variations of them will be dropped by Sony at any place and at any time. You can find them everywhere, including social media platforms, live streams, film, and other important occasions.
To increase your chances of winning an elusive PS5 console, you can communicate with your friends to look for them in every possible outlet. You need to be watchful for the announcements, even from high-profile influencers or programs.
Once you find them, this does not mean that you would automatically win the next-gen console. Getting all of them means that you have more entries for the PlayStation 5 draw.
