The same retailer, ShopAtSC, announced a new PS5 restock for players in the country. According to the announcement, the PS5 pre-order will take place on Thursday, May 27 at 12 PM. This is the only place in which players stand a chance of pre-ordering their favourite console, however, make sure you know that the place will be flooded as the last console was sold out from the Sony Centre within minutes.

The May 27 PS5 pre-order will be processed starting June 7, but due to local COVID-19 restrictions on deliveries of non-essential items region-wise, one can also expect some delays. Sony Center had also mentioned that players who have ordered the console on the website before will not be allowed to purchase another unit.

Moreover, Vijay Sales, a popular Indian eCommerce platform, has also announced PS5 pre-orders. According to the official statement, the organisation will also be restocking PlayStation 5 on May 27 and the pre-order will begin at exactly 12 PM onwards.
