Although the last few Direct queues did not feature a public queue, if there is one, it will likely be sometime around 2PM PT/5PM ET. This private queue will begin at 12PM PT and 3PM ET, and can only be accessed through the email link sent from PlayStation. Households Own at Least One Game ConsoleĪs pointed out by on Twitter, PlayStation users were receiving invitations to another PS Direct queue, scheduled for later today. It is so hard to get a PS5, that when restocked to GameStop, Best Buy, or any other big retailer, the consoles are sold out in seconds.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a litany of manufacturing problems have occurred resulting in computer chip shortages worldwide, in turn meaning less consoles are being produced.
