PS5. Sony’s most famous console is available again in recent weeks, a godsend for all those who have been waiting to buy it since its release.
[Mis à jour le 20 février 2023 à 15h10] If the PS5 has been one of your dreams since its announcement in November 2020, know that it will now be possible to find it much more regularly in stores and on the web. Indeed, after more than two years of shortages and production difficulties linked to the coronavirus crisis, the Sony console is once again available in stock at several merchants. Sony has even announced the imminent end of any form of shortage of its Playstation 5 immediately following these announcements by several sales on its site and on that of certain retailers. Right now, the PS5 is available, here’s where to find it:
Where to find the PS5 at the best price? Although Sony has promised a fairly large influx of stocks in the coming days, it is still quite complicated to get your hands on the console. Restocking is however still planned and continues to appear at certain well-known brands such as Amazon, CDiscount or Micromania. Sony has also launched its own site to be able to acquire the console … Until the latter is out of stock. Note that the Rakuten Marketplace still has stock, but with prices higher than the recommended retail price.
Manufacturer of the console, Sony has a place of choice in the list of resellers of Playstation 5. Organizing well-attended console sales at the height of the shortage, the Japanese giant is today at the top of the list of resellers of the console, just ahead of Amazon. Sony’s advantage also lies in the fact that its site offers bare and permanent console sales, allowing you to get rid of a pack comprising a game or an accessory that is not necessarily desired. You will find all the information and offers on the Sony website.

It is on the Amazon UK site that we can find the PS5 at the moment, the console being out of stock on Amazon.fr. You’ll find PS5 + God of War bundles for £539, which works out to you around €640 on delivery. A good option if you were planning to update your gaming configuration. For now, stock shortages of the PS5 are still recurrent on online sales sites, despite the recent announcement of the end of the shortage by Jim Ryan, the CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment.
Fnac is back on the PS5 market with many sales in recent days. The yellow brand offers many ways to obtain the console, in particular online via sales that are always quite ephemeral (as the console is popular) or in stores where Playstation 5 stocks are always more numerous. Today, no current sale on the retailer’s site, but we can only advise you to go to the store to find your happiness.
Once again, CDiscount is the only French seller on the web where to find a PS5 at the moment. The company offers console packs at varying prices, ranging from the simple PS5 + game + controller combination to much more complete bundles. Count between 600 and 850 € for these offers open to all buyers. As a reminder, the selling price of the PS5 is today €550 for the Standard version and €450 for the Digital version. A console + game + controller pack is normally sold by Sony at €619.99.
A champion of peer-to-peer sales, Rakuten has long been a go-to site for second-hand PS5 sales. A good way to get the console at a much higher price at the worst times of the shortage in recent years. At this time, you will be able to find very relevant offers for Sony’s console on the resale platform, whether new or used. Here are the best PS5 deals at Rakuten.
