SONY’S PS5 has proven a smash-hit in the UK, with more good news on the way for the PlayStation 5 brand in 2020.
Sony is looking to top the success of the PS4 by making the PlayStation 5 the most popular next-gen console in 2020 and beyond.
While the latest PS5 re-stock event is now over and leading retailers like Argos and Currys are sold out again, more is expected in the future.
It’s unclear if there will be more PS5 stock to buy before the end of the year, but it looks like at least one more refresh is possible.
And if that happens, Sony might be able to pull off another month of impressive sales for its next-gen console.
It was revealed earlier this week that the PS5 was the best-selling console in the UK during November 2020.
PS5 UK sales have been high, although the tech giant has failed to keep up with demand, much like in the United States.
According to new sales information shared by GfK market data, via GamesIndustry, the PlayStation 5 was the leading console product in the region.
Around 900,000 games consoles were sold in the UK during November, with the Nintendo Switch finishing in second place.
So far the following online stores have stocked the console, or are expecting more arrivals soon:
Amazon UK – Out of stock, Amazon “don’t know” when more will be available
Argos – Restocked 3 December at 3am, now sold out with the retailer saying it is “working hard” to get more stock
