GAMERS are going wild after GAME announced that it will restock the sought-after PlayStation 5 today.
The UK retailer said that a selection of consoles and bundles will be available online and in-store from Tuesday morning.
In a tweet, GAME said that customers hoping to get their hands on the sold-out machine would have to wait in a digital queueing system.
Customers are only allowed to buy one console or bundle at a time.
There are 50 bundles listed on the company’s website right now, so it’s a significant drop.
It could go live anytime between now and midday.
“This morning we will be going live with a selection of PS5 consoles & bundles,” GAME tweeted on Tuesday.
“Due to the large amount of traffic, we operate a queuing system to make the process as smooth and fair as possible for our customers.
“If you try and order more than one console, any additional orders will be cancelled within 24 hours.
If you’re not able to secure a console online, please contact your local GAME store to discuss your options.”
Sony released two version of the PlayStation 5 last year. The full PS5 costs £449/$499, while a Digital Edition without a disc tray is priced at £359/$399.
Despite hitting shelves almost a year ago, both versions of the console have been sold out around the globe for months.
The shortfall is a result of a worldwide shortage of microchips used to power everything from electric cars to gaming consoles.
Analysts predict that, as a result of the chip crisis, the PS5 and its rival, Microsoft’s Xbox Series X, will remain low in stock until 2022.
