Pre-orders for the PlayStation 5 went live tod at 12:00 today. And as expected, consumers around the country scrambled to get their hands on Sony’s next-gen consoles. The PS5 consoles have already been sold out across all major retailers.

The PlayStation 5 consoles were up for pre-order on Amazon India, Flipkart, Vijay Sales, Croma, and Reliance Digital among other retail channels. Pre-orders for the console started at 12:00 pm (IST) while the console is slated to be shipped on February 2.

However, stock of the PlayStation 5 consoles dried out within minutes of pre-orders going live.

Errors are also popping up on Reliance Digital and Croma suggesting that the console might already be sold out at these e-retailers. Additionally, Games The Shop and the Sony Center are currently unresponsive. Sony has not provided any details about the total number of units that were available for pre-order.

So, if you couldn’t pre-order the console today, you might have to wait a bit longer to access the next-gen console gaming as there is no word on restocking. The PlayStation 5 is facing supply shortages across the world, so the wait for many gamers across India might continue.
