When is the next PS5 December restock? Christmas is coming, and players undoubtedly want to get their hands on the latest PlayStation console. It’s in notoriously short supply, only dropping in small quantities at unpredictable times. Nonetheless, if you’re looking to get a PS5 this Christmas and want to know where to look, we’re here to help. We’ve compiled all the December restock news, so you can snag yourself a PS5.
PS5 Christmas 2021 December restock news
If you’re looking to grab a PlayStation 5 this Christmas, your best chance is on December 3, or December 10 following that.
That’s based on stock information from SupplyNinja, a leading PS5 stock influencer. They confirm that Target is receiving a large supply of PS5 consoles this week, so they could drop at any time from now. However, it seems most likely that they’ll release on Friday, given that’s when most games tend to launch. As such, you’ll want to keep an eye on the Target site this Friday. Equally, we’ve earmarked the Friday after that, too. If there’s any surplus stock or items left from this huge shipment, they’ll probably go on sale soon after.
Target stores are receiving PS5 shipments on 11/27 & 11/28. This suggests a restock drop will occur this coming week!

Elsewhere, it’s a good idea to check for PS5 consoles on subsequent Fridays. Stockists will most likely launch any PS5 stock approaching the weekend, as that’s when most people are off work and looking. It seems like Sony will release a large dose of consoles in the lead-up to Christmas, so major retailers like Walmart and Amazon should get some, too. PS5 drops tend to happen sporadically, not announced beforehand to avoid website servers crashing. Therefore, it’s worth following stock accounts like SupplyNinja, to keep up with drops the second they happen.
While these tips may not guarantee you a PS5 console, this holiday period should see a rise in available stock as people try to get them for Christmas. Walmart recently faced hot water for allegedly stockpiling PS5 consoles. However, fans will be happy that shortages caused by the Suez Canal blockage are now over.
