In other PS5 news, if you’re looking to get a PS5 on day one just be aware that sales for the next-gen Sony console will be online only. The news was revealed by Sony in a blog post who explained: “Hi all – the launch of the PlayStation 5 console on November 12 (or November 19, depending on your region) is almost upon us!
“In the interest of keeping our gamers, retailers, and staff safe amidst COVID-19, today we are confirming that all day-of launch sales will be conducted through the online stores of our retail partners. No units will be available in-store for purchase on launch day (November 12 or November 19, depending on your region) – please don’t plan on camping out or lining up at your local retailer on launch day in hopes of finding a PS5 console for purchase.
“Be safe, stay home, and place your order online. Gamers who have pre-ordered for pick-up at their local retailer should still be able to do so at their designated appointment time, under the retailer’s safety protocols.
“Please confirm the details with your local retailer. A special thank you to our entire community for your continued support this year. Here’s to the next generation of gaming!”
