Although you’ll have a tough time getting your hands on a PS5, that gives you plenty of time to save up your hard-earned cash. Here’s everything you need to know about the PS5 price, as well as where you should hopefully be able to find the console.

Where can I buy a PS5?

If you see a site proclaiming that they will have the PlayStation 5 in stock, be ready. It’s bound to sell out almost instantly, so you may spend precious time coming up empty-handed. The console has been popping up at major retailers here and there over the past few months, and patience is the name of the game. Do your best to stick with reputable retailers and avoid the resale market — most sites are bound to price-gouge pretty heavily on the PS5.

Check out the buttons below for the PS5 product pages at all major retailers. Of course, we can’t promise that any of them are in stock, but these links should get you to the right places.
