The Gamestop PS5 restock is happening today across 3000 stores in the US. With three bundles available, don’t expect this Playstation 5 console restock to last long. 

Gamestop is having its first PS5 restock in a month. The last time that Gamestop was stocking PS5’s was on May 28th, with several bundles available for purchase. Gamestop announced the impending PS5 restock on its website, where you’re also able to find a participating store.

You will need to be a Gamestop PowerUp Rewards Pro member in order to purchase the console. It costs $14.99 for a year’s subscription, and you’ll also gain a couple of other benefits including a $10 welcome card, and early access to exclusive products, including the all-important Playstation 5.

According to our friends at The Shortcut, there will be three bundles available, starting at $675, and two for $770. They will also include a voucher for you to spend in-store, so you can pick up a game or two. We loved The Quarry, and Evil Dead: The Game, so be sure to check them out.

The $675 Gamestop PS5 bundle includes:

The first $770 Gamestop PS5 bundle includes: 

The Second $770 Gamestop PS5 bundle includes: 

Of all of the bundles, we think the  $770 bundles that include Horizon: Forbidden West is the best buy. You get oodles of games, an extra controller, a charging station, and a trio of excellent games that will not leave you bored. Remember, you also get Astro’s Playroom with every Playstation 5, so be sure to check out that nice little addition, too.

The exact time of the Gamestop PS5 restock is going to be at 9AM ET, or whenever your local store opens. Stores on the East Coast will obviously be opening first. So, be sure to get up early if you want to secure your console. Lines can quickly form, and quantities will be incredibly limited, so be sure to get there as early as you possibly can.
