THE wait is over!
The Playstation 5 went on sale in the UK at 8am this morning – and just like last week’s launch of the XBox Series X and S, it sold out in most locations extremely fast.
Curry’s, Argos, John Lewis, Very and Sony were all out of stock within minutes, while the BT website crashed so stock levels there are currently impossible to check.
Gamers’ best hopes now are finding consoles on Amazon, GAME or Asda, who either currently have, or have promised to have, stock after midday.
All sites are currently buckling under the demand, however, so unfortunately its a matter of luck as to whether you’ll be be successful.
Keep checking this page for latest stock locations and updates.
Those fortunate enough to have secured pre-orders from GAME will in theory be able to collect their consoles in person until 2pm.
