PlayStation Direct has regular events where they will send out invitations to people on the mailing list. The only thing that’s at all tricky, and the reason for this blog post, is it takes a little digging to figure out how to get on that mailing list if you’re not already on it. Once you’ve done that, you will (eventually) get an email inviting you to an opportunity to buy a PlayStation 5. You just need to get on PlayStation Direct’s mailing list. I didn’t think it would work, but it was easy, so I said, “What the hell.” Not only did it work, but I got a PS5 within a week of using this method, and it was shipped to me (for free) in 2 days. Then I learned of the method I’m going to share with you. I eventually got so frustrated I quit trying, and I resolved that I would just wait until I could just walk into a store and buy a PS5. It was frustrating to say the least and a huge waste of time. This process almost always involved sitting in a waiting room and/or queue on the retailer’s website for hours, waiting for my chance, only for the consoles to sell out within seconds once they were available. I tried to get them from Walmart, Target, Amazon, and Sony itself via PlayStation Direct (I never tried to get one from Game Stop, because they only sell them in over-priced bundles including things I didn’t want or need). Then I would go to the retailer’s site, and try to get one. I followed accounts on Twitter that would tell you when an online retailer was selling PS5s. I got my PS5 within a week using this method.Īs I said, I spent almost a year trying (and failing) to get a PS5. You don’t need to follow any Twitter accounts or spend hours in queues. It’s totally legitimate, and it’s the easiest, least stressful way to get a PS5. I finally got one using the method I’ll show you today. Due to the scum of the Earth known as scalpers, it has been very difficult for most people to get a PlayStation 5.
