PS5 30th Anniversary pre-orders are hard to come by, but stock has been popping up at retailers. The PS5 Slim 30th Anniversary version is going in and out of stock at Gamestop at the top of every hour, and consoles are flashing in and out at Walmart so long as you're patient. There's also a chance it'll be coming back soon at Best Buy thanks to the retailer's habit of dropping consoles in waves (it was available a little while ago, but is now "coming soon" again).
The wider range of accessories is still unavailable, but we'll be checking routinely on the PS1-themed controllers over the course of today alongside our search for PS5 30th Anniversary pre-orders. If you're hellbent on picking up the nostalgic console or handsets, you'll want to check back here for updates.
As tempting as it may be, we'd urge you not to give in to PS5 Pro bundle resellers, as opportunists are inflating the prices of pre-orders. Yes, we know the pain of seeing an out-of-stock sign, and those listings on marketplaces will look mighty tempting if you've got the funds. But take it from us, it'll feel far more rewarding patiently waiting for consoles to pop back up at reliable retailers than paying over the odds. In Japan, you must have a PS account for the region to pre-order, which highlights just how sought-after the system is.
If you're on the hunt for a PS5 Pro by itself, there's some better news. The console is available by itself for $699.99 / £699.99 and is still up on PS Direct. Like the 30th Anniversary Collection, standard PS5 Pro pre-orders are also hitting wider retailers today.
