The PS5 it is almost impossible to find gift this holiday season. For those who want to give one more try to get a console – hopefully in time for Christmas – Sony Direct has a queue to buy the system today at 6:15 PM ET (3:15 PM PT). Go there, wait and hope for the best.
As the Wario64 Twitter feed points out on Wednesday, this is a random queue, so you don’t have to worry about being “late” as long as you beat the cutoff time.
Today’s queue is different now that Sony randomizes the placement of your queue, as long as you load the page before 1:00 p.m. PT.
