GameStop PS5 restock in-store event time on Friday – all locations with stock listed
The next GameStop PS5 restock in-store event in the US will happen in seven cities on Friday, October 22, and if you follow our PS5 and Twitter tracker Matt Swider – follow and turn on notifications – you'll get crucial alerts of when and where to find the Sony PlayStation 5 in stock. This is your lucky chance if you're in Los Angeles, Phoenix, Houston, San Antonio, Miami-Ft. Lauderdale, Chicago or Boston (Matt will tweet when he knows which stores). It's been nearly impossible to find the console over the last two weeks, but, as we teased on Sunday night, our sources suggested that this week wouldn't be dry for PS5 stock. It'll be only bundles and last time the PS5 Disc version cost $705, but fewer resellers showed up, meaning you actually have a chance.
We've listed all of the city locations of the GameStop PS5 restock coming this Friday. Follow Matt for individual store updates now:
► When? Follow our PS5 and Xbox restock Twitter tracker Matt Swider and turn on notifications for instant restock news. It's the fastest way to get PS5 and Xbox stock updates.
► Never buy from other Twitter users – ever. They're all scams. Only buy from the US stores Matt alerts you about. No one will sell a PS5 or Xbox for just $550.
► How to get the email invite? Sign up for Matt's Monday newsletter to find out how to open yourself up to Sony's email invite list. He details the steps weekly (on Monday mornings).
GameStop store locations: to be listed in full soon
GameStop is listing the cities where the PS5 restock will happen, but it hasn't populated the results of its search function for us to peer into where you can find stock of the console. The GameStop store search function it provides doesn't work, as it shows the stores for the three prior cities where there was a restock.
However, we'll update this report as soon as we have more information regarding the GameStop PS5 in-stores restock locations.
GameStop PS5 restock time
As to when you can buy it, it's always when the store normally opens, so check your local GameStop PS5 restock store hours. Ours in New York City (part of the last round of restocks) opened at 8am EDT.
Be warned, a lot of people will wait in line overnight – sometimes days in advance. We reported on a New York City mother and son who took a bus from Baltimore to Manhattan to wait in line for up to three days before the last PS5 restock to be first in line.
By the same token, a few others showed up to be last in time at 7:45am, right before the store opened – and still got a PS5 console bundle. But that's risky.
The total stores that got the PS5 last time? 202 stores with the PS5 in stock, and each one had, on average, 42 consoles to sell when they opened their doors – any time from 8am local time for some major stores to 11am local time.
Los Angeles PS5 restock store locations (coming)
Los Angeles was one of the first places we began to hear would have the PS5 for Friday. Sure enough, the sources were right and the City of Angles will indeed have Playstation 5 bundles on hand, first-come, first-serve.
