Sony is releasing a fresh batch of PlayStation 5 consoles today through its online storefront at 5:15PM ET / 2:15PM PT. Both the $499.99 version of the PS5 that can accept discs and the discless version that costs $100 less will be available for order. Unlike other retailers who release PS5 consoles into the wild, Sony uses a slightly more orderly queuing system that automatically puts you in line if you’re on its site when the sale goes live. Consoles will likely sell out quickly, as they have done since the console launched late last year.
If you’re looking for tips on securing a PS5, be on time and attentive, and hope that luck is on your side for this one. Oh, and be sure to log into your PlayStation account and enter your shipping and payment information ahead of time. Sony says that it’ll ship the console for free if you purchase something alongside it in your cart.
