[Mis à jour le 30 mai 2022 à 15h46] For Sony, the year 2022 will always be very special. The company is still seeing abnormally low sales for its newest console, the PS5, despite being one of the most popular consoles in the brand’s history. In question, permanent stock shortages which prevent many potential buyers from finding their happiness. Except that for once, in these last days of May, we can find the console directly in the store, in addition to finding it during fairly regular restocking on the net. The new Horizon Forbidden West + PS5 bundles are here, and buyers are taking advantage of them.

You will have to go to the Micromania stores to try to get your hands on these brand new console packs. Indeed, it is difficult to find an offer online this Monday, resellers remain silent and restocking rare. You will probably have to wait until Tuesday morning to find the console on resale sites, which tend to offer the console on Tuesday morning, Wednesday morning and Thursday morning. Eyes will be on Micromania and CDiscount this Tuesday, May 31, while Amazon could also put the console back on sale.
