PS5 UK restock at GAME this Tuesday morning
This could be your last chance (pic: Sony)
Possibly the last chance to get a PS5 from GAME before Christmas is happening this Tuesday, with EE also due to get more in this week.
It’s getting close to Christmas and the chances to get a PlayStation 5 before the big day are starting to dry up, with the restock on Tuesday, December 14 at GAME likely to be the last one.
As usual, the stock is expected to go live somewhere between 9am and 11.30am GMT, so if you want one you’re advised to be ready and checking the website first thing in the morning.
PS5 Stock UK predicts that priority orders will be delivered by December 16 and standard orders by December 20, so that’s obviously cutting it fine.
When is the last chance to buy a PS5 in the UK this Christmas?
It’s not impossible there might be another restock before Christmas but judging by the above dates it’s probably only priority orders (i.e. those you pay more for shipping on) that are going to get to you on time.
Mobile phone network EE is also expected to get stock on Tuesday, at around 10am, but as usual you have to be a member in order to actually buy one. Although that’s good news if you do happen to be a subscriber.

Other stores may also get more stock later in the week, but at this point you want to be taking every opportunity you can, if you want to ensure you get a console under the tree on time.
As ever, the only other option is eBay, where consoles are readily available. They tend to be an average of £200 above the standard price though and, of course, you don’t necessarily know you’re buying from somewhere as reliable as a normal shop or website.
