Sony PS5 devices will be available on Flipkart soon. More stock for the popular Sony console is expected to come on the e-commerce portal later today in both disc and digital formats. Both console variations are already advertised as 'coming soon on Flipkart'.
Surprisingly, as of the time of writing, the PS5 listings are only viewable on the Flipkart app and not on browsers. Regardless, the stock update will undoubtedly delight gamers across the country.
Why is there a PS5 availability shortage in the market?
The Sony PS5 continues to elude most prospective purchasers even two years after its official release. For much of the previous two years, the PS5 was available to purchase from various merchants in India but getting one in stock was nearly tricky due to extremely high demand and equally low availability almost everywhere in the world.
Can Flipkart fulfill the high demand for the PS5?
It remains to be seen whether the stock refresh on Flipkart would address the console's availability concerns, which appears highly doubtful.
However, given the tremendous demand for the console, anticipate the pre-ordering phase to conclude in a few seconds or less, assuming the exercise doesn't destroy Flipkart's servers first.
What is the price of the gaming device?
The console comes with a bundled game called Astro's Playroom on both the disc and digital editions. Both consoles are also priced the same for the time being, despite claims of a price increase a few weeks ago. The digital edition costs Rs 39,990, while the physical edition costs Rs 49,999.
Conclusion
If you plan on grabbing the console at noon today, log in at least a few minutes beforehand, and make sure any address and card data are entered so you may have a quick transaction experience. These variables will not guarantee a PS5, but they may slightly tilt the scales in your favour.
