Sony recently shared some bad news about itsPlayStation 5console. Even though thePlayStation 5has technically been on sale since November 2020, it remains extremely difficult to purchase at retail price, and it looks like those problems will potentially continue until 2024. Considering this, anyone that wants a PS5 but has yet to pick one up will want to try their hand whenever a restock is announced.
Retail giant Walmart has confirmed that it will berestocking its PlayStation 5 consoles come Thursday, June 2at 12pm PT. However, there are some caveats to keep in mind when it comes to the next Walmart PS5 restock. For one, the next Walmart PS5 restock will be online-only, so customers shouldn’t expect to walk into their local Walmart stores and walk out with a console in tow. Secondly, the next Walmart restock will be exclusive to Walmart+ members.

Walmart PS5 Restock Time and Date
Regardless, the Walmart PS5 restock will include both versions of the console that Sony has released so far. For the uninitiated, there is the standard PS5 console that costs $499.99, and then there’s thePS5 Digital Edition consolethat costs $399.99. The two consoles are the same in terms of power and gaming capabilities, with the only real difference being that the standard PS5 has a disc drive whereas the Digital Edition does not.
If one fails to secure a PS5 console in the next restock, they should have more opportunities from various retailers in the weeks and months ahead. Nowadays, signing up for Walmart+ orGameStop PowerUp Rewards Proseem to be the easiest ways to get a new console without paying scalper prices, so those who still have yet to get a PS5 may as well give them a shot.
