BLACK FRIDAY PS5. While questions persist about the presence of the Playstation 5 during Black Friday, the first stocks are arriving on the market. A positive sign before the fateful week?
[Mis à jour le 16 novembre 2022 à 11h46] The history of the Playstation 5 is long and convoluted. While this little jewel of technology is celebrating its two years on the market, few people can boast of having obtained it easily. Out of stock permanently due to production problems linked to the coronavirus pandemic, the console remains very popular, making its rare restocking appointments of choice for gamers, which greatly reduces the possible purchase windows. Upstream of Black-Friday, we see the first returns to stock of the console. We found it today at Amazon in particular.

What will be the best deals on the PS5 during Black Friday?
Whether during or after Black Friday, the PS5 remains a Holy Grail as stocks are scarce and the meager supplies quickly run out. To react as quickly as possible, it is better to have the PS5 pages of online sales sites as a favorite. Here are a few :
Will the PS5 be at CDiscount for Black Friday?
For Black Friday, we were able to find some PS5 restockings at CDiscount. Unfortunately, these packs were sold in very limited quantities and only a lucky few managed to get them. But do not lose hope, the PS5 can come back at any time during flash sales and you will have to be on the alert to get one. Do not hesitate to monitor your social networks, this article and the CDiscount Twitter account to take advantage of any offers.
Will the PS5 be at Micromania for Black Friday?
Stocks remain as hard to find as normal, although there are rumors of restocks on Monday. Despite a few copies for sale on the Micromania site, only a few lucky ones were able to obtain one, after long minutes of patience.
Why the PS5 will not be available for Black Friday?
If you are still wondering about the total absence of PS5 in stores, know that this situation has its roots last year in the midst of the coronavirus crisis. Indeed, the health crisis has had a strong impact on the production of microcomponents by forcing the closure of Chinese factories which supply the bulk of the world’s stock. These small electronic chips that are found in graphics cards, consoles and cars (among others) are therefore very difficult to obtain, which greatly slows down the production of the Playstation 5. With regard to a possible return to the normal, professionals and economists advance the date to current or even the end of 2024.
What are the PS5 prices for Black Friday?
Some lucky people have been able to get their PS5 in recent days during short event operations orchestrated by Veepee, Carrefour or Micromania. Others ran into sites that were stormed and quickly planted. Bugs, delays, sites out of service… Complaints from gamers have been numerous, as well as criticism towards those who then resell the PS5 at an inflated price. Even after Black Friday, we can also find PS5 consoles on market places at prices much higher than the official price. Sometimes count up to 1000 euros for a console usually sold for 549 euros, far from the “good deal” advocated by Black Friday. But in these times of crisis and supply problems, there is no doubt that these rare consoles will quickly find takers…
Will the PS4 be sold off during Black Friday?
The supply difficulties of the PS5 benefit its predecessor, the PS4, which sees its lifespan extended and still benefits from very recent games and a much larger catalog. For this Black Friday, the offers were legion, whether on the console itself but also on many games on sale or offered in packs comprising several games, sometimes flagship opuses of the PS4.
If after any attempt, there is no way to bring yourself a PS5 and you come across a good deal, the PS4 could be profitable. However, if you did decide to buy a PS4, there are a few caveats to consider. Indeed, the best model, the PlayStation 4 Pro, is no longer in production, so you may end up paying more if you find it in stores.
The PS4 version valid on the market and potentially in reduction will be the PS4 Slim. It should be noted that its resolution is limited to 1080p, so you will not be able to benefit from the 4K format. On the other hand, there is no denying that several PS4 exclusive games are worth trying and could be worth getting the console. Some of these famous titles include, God of War, Bloodborne, Persona 5, FIFA 23…
Black Friday is often the occasion to take advantage of big discounts on the various subscription offers. Gaming is one of them with regular promotions on the PlayStation Plus subscription which notably allows you to play online.
What are the best PlayStation 5 games on Black Friday?
In order to be able to enjoy exclusive PS5 games, you will first have to find a restocking of the console, which may be difficult. But surely Sony has made sure that lucky gamers who got their hands on a PS5 don’t need to go back to their old PlayStation consoles. Some of the best PS5 exclusive games include The Last of Us Part 1, Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut, and Spider-Man Remastered.
As for Black Friday, we could more or less hope for discounts on games that came out at the start of the year and which made the buzz such as Elden Ring. We could also expect discounts on games that have just been released on PS5 such as Horizon Forbidden West, God of War: Ragnarök and The Last of Us Part I.
