A substantial new restock of the PlayStation 5 went live at Walmart today. This restock is one that had been known about for quite some time, which meant that customers had plenty of opportunities to prepare for it in advance. And despite the fact that so many people were looking to take part in this new PS5 sale, Walmart seems to have done a fantastic job with this drop.

Not long after this Walmart PS5 restock started at midday, social media began to fill up with people celebrating their long-awaited win. Many reported that Walmart’s decision to only sell these PS5 consoles to Walmart+ members worked out quite well, as it allowed the sale process to go off without a hitch. Some who won even said that Walmart’s restock process of the PS5 has become much better than competitors like Amazon, GameStop, and Target.
Even though there were a ton of wins today with this PS5 restock, not everyone was so lucky. Some customers still reported various issues with Walmart’s website once the restock began. Others were also caught off guard by the need to be a Walmart+ member in order to purchase the console, which led to anger about this decision. Still, despite these problems, this seems to have been one of the best PS5 sales in quite a long time.ย
