Where to buy a PS5 Pro: restock updates as the console is a no-show at retailers in the lead-up to GTA 6

Straight to the source at PlayStation Direct is no longer as reliable as it once was, with Sony itself having no PS5 Pro stock.

The biggest online retailer can't come to anyone's rescue for a PS5 Pro right now and has no stock of the console. Boo.

Walmart only has PS5 Slim consoles for sale right now, unfortunately, with no PS5 Pro anywhere to be seen on the site.

Best Buy has got an unbelievably inflated price listed right now on its PS5 Pro page, but we don't recommend going for that. Sadly, it too is out of stock at the normal listing price.

Target's PS5 Pro stock is also totally out and nowhere to be seen.

The game-specialist retailer is out of stock of the PS5 Pro, unless you want to buy a hugely, massively inflated pre-owned console at over $1,300 (which we don't recommend).

Antonline has no stock of the PlayStation 5 Pro either right now, and looks slim on everything PS5 to be honest.

While PS Direct was once the bastion of PS5 Pro stock, for obvious reasons, going straight to the source hasn't brought me any luck over many, many attempts. No PS5 Pro stock here.

The mega-retailer can't come to our aid this time, as it too has zero stock of the PS5 Pro right now.

Argos is the one where you might just get lucky, as you can play the postcode lottery with its regional stock. I've tried loads of postcodes, though, and had no luck.

Very has plenty of regular PS5 Slim consoles and bundles in stock, but sadly no Pro hardware.

Currys is one of hte best tech retailers in the UK for all things gaming, but it's out of PS5 Pro stock right now.

The EE Store has been one of our absolute favorites this generation for PS5 hardware and consoles, even offering bundles and hard-to-find DualSense stock — but no PS5 Pros here either right now.

The Game Collection has proved extremely reliable and popular with gamers this past couple of years, but it's no dice there for PS5 Pro stock right now, too.

John Lewis is always a staple retailer of ours when recommending places to check stock on gaming gear, but it too looks dry of the Pro (and other PS5 hardware, to be honest).

Video game specialist retailer Game used to be a go-to retailer for everything PlayStation, let alone consoles, but it too has no stock right now.

ShopTo was a long-time reliable stockist of the PS5 Pro and offered a whole 14 pence off the retailer price as it usually does — no stock right now, though.

PC component retailer Scan is worth a look, too, having had previous PS5 Pro stock, and still having PS5 Slim stock too.

While it typically sells PC components, gaming PCs and gear, ebuyer has got previous form in offering PS5 Pro stock, so it's worth checking.

Anywhere is worth checking right now, and AO did have some stock in previous months, so it's not without precedent.
