The PS5 is the almost-impossible-to-find gift this holiday season. For those who want to try one more time to get a console — hopefully in time for Christmas — Sony Direct has a queue forming to buy the system at 4 p.m. ET (1 p.m. PT). Head over there, wait and hope for the best.
As the Wario64 Twitter feed points out, this is a randomized queue, so there’s no worry about being “late,” so long as you beat the 4 p.m. ET cutoff.

Today’s queue is different now that Sony is making your queue placement random, as long as you load the page before 1 PM PT.

The PS5 also popped up earlier this week at Best Buy and Walmart, but immediately sold out at both online retailers.
