Sony confirms that it will be holding the next PS5 restock on its official website. According to a new report, the event will take place this Tuesday, May 31, but it's only through email invitation at PS Direct.
Sony's Invite-Only PS5 Restock
The demand for the next-gen consoles increased when the pandemic hit the world. People have spent most of their time inside their homes holding different gadgets to pass the time.
Sony has found this opportunity to be a driving factor in the rising demand for the PS5. Unfortunately, it did not live with its expectations since it could not keep up with the issue amid the supply shortage.
It even got worse when the semiconductor crisis impacted many tech companies, including Sony. The past years have been challenging for people who want to obtain this console. However, things have shifted quickly for those who want to get another shot of opportunity.
According to Gaming Intel, Sony will be dropping PS5 consoles on Tuesday, May 31. The PS Direct will only be invite-only, so the only thing to get PlayStation 5 is by an email invitation.
The Japanese firm recently announced that it would prioritize PS5 production. It expects that the sales for these consoles will surpass the current record that the PS4 achieved.
Since it's not an in-store drop, make sure you already sign up for the PS Direct ahead of the restock.
Additionally, the PS5 restock will reportedly happen from 11 AM to 4 PM PT. This will be your window to get the most elusive console on the planet.

Joining Ahead of the PS5 Restock
If you want to increase your chances of snagging this next-gen gaming machine, we suggest you participate in the online queue right now.
Being an early bird for this virtual queue is important since there's no guarantee that you can get a PS5 console even if you received an invitation from Sony.
That's the only thing that you can do during the event. You can also watch the June PlayStation State of Play presentation see the newest video game titles that will be coming soon.
How to Sign Up For PS Direct
