PS5 Standard will return to be available for purchase at GameStop tomorrow, Wednesday 20 April 2022, with the formula that is now becoming standard for the retail chain in question, as we have seen in recent weeks: the console will be sold in a bundle with other products with availability announced live on Twitch.

As seen in recent weeks, the details on how to purchase will be revealed during the live broadcast on the official Twitch channel of GameStop Italia, starting from the same time. As always, the advice is to follow the broadcast carefully and try to be ready for action, as PS5 will be available as usual in extremely limited quantities.
There are no precise details on the contents of the bundle yet. GameStop's PS5 of tomorrow, but we can now have a pretty good idea of what it's all about. The previous cases have always reached about 700 euros of total expenditure, considering the various products that must be forcibly added to the console and which inevitably raise the total price. In previous cases we have often seen included a second Dualsense, a remote control, Blu-Ray movies of various kinds and a selection of games, as well as PS5 Standard of course.
To get an idea of what you can expect, this was the GameStop PS5 bundle on sale last week, Wednesday 13 April: in addition to the standard PS5, inside there was a second Dualsense in the Starlight coloring Blue, Sony's official multimedia remote control and three PS5 games, namely Demon's Souls Remake, Uncharted Collection: Legacy of Thieves and Tales of Arise. All at a price of 699.98 euros.

GameStop PS5 restock sold out — where to find inventory next
Update: GameStop is now sold out of PS5 consoles. Make sure to follow our PS5 restock guide for news on the next console drop. (A Target PS5 restock could happen next week).
An in-store GameStop PS5 restock is happening today (Saturday). This is the first time the retailer has restocked the PS5 outside of the working week.
News of this restock comes from Matt Swider of The Shortcut. Matt is one of the most trusted stock trackers around, with reliable sources across practically all major retailers. Multiple GameStop sources have confirmed to him that an in-store PS5 drop is set to be held on Saturday, April 2.
GameStop typically holds in-store restocks on Fridays, but has delayed things by 24 hours in this instance. The reason for this unexpected weekend drop according to a GameStop insider is because 'no one will believe we are selling PS5s on April fools day' (that's a genuine quote, claims Swider).
This in-store restock will start from each individual store opening time (which could be as early as 8 a.m. local time) — but expect the most keen shoppers to start queuing before then.
As is now standard with GameStop restocks, the retailer will only offer the console in pre built bundles and you'll need to be a PowerUp Reward Pro member in order to secure one. Swider reports there will be four bundles available during this GameStop PS5 restock, two that include the standard PS5 and two that include the PS5 Digital Edition.
The cheapest bundle will cost $630 while the most expensive package will retail for $730. While a GameStop bundle is certainly not the cheapest way to score a PS5, at least GameStop always charges the combined retail price of the items within its bundles, so you won’t be getting price gouged.
It appears that almost all of GameStop’s 3,000+ U.S. locations will be involved in this restock. In the past some restocks have been limited to as little as three stores. We don’t have a definitive list of which stores will have stock just yet, but we’re expecting to get that news prior to consoles going on sale tomorrow morning.
The demand for the PS5 has abated somewhat, so you likely won’t need to go to extreme measures like camping out but we still recommend arriving ahead of opening if you desperately want a console.
If you'd rather purchase your console online or don't want to stretch your budget to cover a pricey GameStop bundle, be sure to check our PS5 restock hub. This comprehensive guide is updated daily with the latest updates across all major retailers.
