Update: The PS5 stock was launched at the Sony Direct store, with the website randomly selecting people to buy the console. Below are the two versions in stock. So far, our waiting time is listed as ‘more than an hour’.
A new PS5 stock in the US takes place today on the Sony Direct website, and it comes with the usual disclaimer: the hard-to-buy console goes fast.

Sony contains three warnings with this PS5 stock. First, you need an active PSN account to complete the purchase. Secondly, you have ten minutes to buy the PS5. Third: “PS5 consoles are available now, but are not guaranteed, even if you’re in line,” according to Sony.
This is your second chance to buy PS5 this week after GameStop quickly sold out of its PlayStation 5 stock within minutes. And those were bundles.
Sony Direct PS5 stock has been quiet for most of February, but the good news is that the site forms a virtual queue and that your order is decided at random.
This means that your chances of getting a PS5 are not slowed down by loading pages and your own bandwidth. This was a big problem when trying to order a PS5 at stores like Walmart and Best Buy, which constantly crashes after a PS5 is available for ordering.
