PS5

Sony’s PS5 is available for pre-order at select retailers starting September 16 so fans anxiously awaiting the console launch can finally punch their ticket to the next-gen.

The PS5 launch is already shaping up to be one of the biggest in history with the newly announced PS Plus Collection, which will give users access to multiple big-name PS4 games.

Meanwhile, the launch lineup looks solid with Demon Souls and Spider-Man Miles Morales in the window while God of War Ragnarok and the Harry Potter RPG Hogwarts: Legacy coming in 2021.

That all said, if you’re as stoked as we are for either for the standard PS5 or Digital Edition, you’re wondering where you can preorder.

United States

United Kingdom

The United Kingdom only has two vendors who are currently taking pre-order interest for the PlayStation 5. Other storefronts like Argos and Currys PC World are also expected to begin selling the PS5 once Sony’s official preorder date gets closer.
