GameStop announces that a limited supply of PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X / S and Switch bundles will be available on its website tomorrow.
In welcome news to anyone still trying to get their hands on a new console, GameStop presents PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X / S, and Nintendo Switch bundles online tomorrow. Players have been struggling to get their hands on the new generation of consoles since it was launched in November, but supplies were scarce because online retailers are still selling their stock almost as fast as they can get it in stock.
This is due to several factors, with the main culprits being the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic that makes the mass production and shipping of the PS5 and Xbox Series X difficult and online scalpers snatching the systems in large quantities to sell online at retail prices . It is understandable that the rare times are the consoles do becoming available often turns into a fierce battle to place orders before stocks run out again, with retailers like GameStop repeatedly experiencing website crashes due to the large amount of traffic that this stock regularly tends to have.

GameStop is not the only retailer that will receive a number of PS5 and Xbox Series X / S consoles in the next few days, as according to a report, Target will be refurbished with PS5s again this week. Even better, stores like Walmart are now making real efforts to combat the scalper bumps that have plagued the current generation of consoles since its launch, so that more players can hopefully order one of those shiny new machines when they sign up.
Many gamers are still waiting for their chance to finally get a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X / S, so a new stock at GameStop is good news. Of course, there is still no guarantee that everyone who logs on to the store’s website tomorrow will get a new console, but with the scalpers hoping to finally take down their privacy efforts, it can be hoped that more players will soon join the current generation of console games and its upgrades.
