It appears that PlayStation Direct is preparing for imminent restocks of the PS5 Slim 30th Anniversary Edition and 30th Anniversary EditionDualSenselater today (October 29).
Yesterday we spotted both listing pages advising shoppers to “Please check back on October 29th.” However, now, as of around 4.30am ET, the pages have been updated to include a time. The line now reads: “Please check back on October 29th from 9AM PDT.”
While this also appears to be on PlayStation Direct USonly, it’s absolutely worth keeping your region’s own page in mind tomorrow as you never know if stock could drop in line with this. If you’re in the UK, I’d definitely recommend keeping tabs on PS Direct to see if that regional storefront follows suit.
Anyway, we’ve got both those PS Direct links below as well as a host of other links to use to check stock elsewhere in both the US and the UK.
$499.99 at PlayStation Direct(stock from 9AM PDT)With the listing page now saying “Please check back on October 29th from 9AM PDT.”, we can only advise you to do exactly that and head straight to PS Direct tomorrow to sit on this page for the PS5 Slim - and check the other retailers below just in case they come good too.

$79.99 at PlayStation Direct(stock from 9AM PDT)The DualSense has been one of the most sought-after standalone items from the whole Collection and its PS Direct page also says “Please check back on October 29th from 9AM PDT.”, then those looking to try and get one should head there tomorrow with this link. A look or camp on the other retailers below is not a bad idea either - just in case.

PS5 Slim 30th Anniversary pre-ordershave been basically flat-out unavailable since the day other retailers could get in on the action (October 10), though I have spotted some shoppers getting lucky at Target.PS5 30th Anniversary DualSense controller pre-orders, on the other hand, have been slightly better with occasional restocks popping up at retailers on both sides of the Atlantic.
The broader picture of the widerPlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection pre-ordershas been equally tough with everything selling out quickly and barely any items ever reappearing in restocks since launch dates.
It’s at total odds with the regularPS5 Pro pre-orderswhich remain plentiful and open at a whole host of retailers in both the US and the UK.
If you’re after the regular PS5 Pro, no matter where you are in the world, then our price-finding tech below will present the best prices and places to secure a pre-order right now.
