PS5 Restock This Week August 16-22: Retailers to Watch

According to Gaming Intel, PlayStation had a big week, with a major rumor circulating that a PS5 Pro might be releasing in 2023. There could also be a new FromSoftware PlayStation exclusive game on its way. Unfortunately, "Bloodborne" fans are not getting the sequel they're hoping for just yet.

With some exciting things for the PS5, it can make those without one a little antsy to get their hands on one. The PS5 stock shortage may be coming to an end soon, but not soon enough. Here are some retailers to keep an eye on to get a chance to snag a new PS5 console for yourself.

GameStop PS5 Restock

GameStop has been releasing waves of restock each week, save for last week, Gaming Intel said.

If you are a PowerUp Rewards Pro member, you'll definitely get first dibs on the latest restocks. Only a small number of units make it to the non-members, a move done by the company to avoid scalpers. Keep your eyes peeled for restocks in-store as well.

Walmart PS5 Restock

Walmart seems to be hosting "restocks" despite not having enough units to ship out. Buyers from June are only just getting their purchases this month, which means even if you do get to successfully checkout your cart, it might take a while for them to get shipped out to you.

Walmart does do in-store restocks for walk-in customer in select areas.

Target PS5 Restock

It could be high time for Target to schedule another restock seeing as they have gone three weeks without doing so, and they have been observed to drop restocks every two to three weeks. And just like Walmart, Target also has in-store stocks in some areas, so check in with your local Target.

Best Buy PS5 Restock

Since Best Buy dropped a restock last week, expect the next one to come between August 17-19, Gaming Intel said.

Antonline PS5 Restock

Antonline has been one of the retailers with more consistent stocks of units. If they go live this week, the consoles will be sold in bundles, which can be a little bit more expensive. However,they are still a good enough deal and it does stop scalpers from hoarding the stock.
