Good news for all those who haven't managed to get their hands on a PlayStation 5 at launch — Sony have said stores are expected to receive more consoles to honor pre-orders or to go on sale in late 2020.

PS5: Sony announces restock before the end of the year

Many gamers found themselves without the long-awaited PlayStation 5 on release date, thanks to a combination of low stock and the current COVID-19 pandemic affecting delivery.

According to Sony's latest tweet, however, stocks may soon be on the rise once more.

We want to thank gamers everywhere for making the PS5 launch our biggest console launch ever. Demand for PS5 is unprecedented, so we wanted to confirm that more PS5 inventory will be coming to retailers before the end of the year - please stay in touch with your local retailers.

People who have purchased a console already yet haven't received it are encouraged to keep in touch with their supplier.

If your pre-order has ever been canceled, this will be an opportunity to assert your rights.
