Yesterday, we wrote that Sony had launched another of its once-rare (but increasingly common) PS5 refreshes, and the $549.99 console bundle that includes the PS5 with a disc drive along with Horizon Forbidden West is still in stock for approx. 19 hours later. Even after everyone has had a chance to get through the queue and make a purchase, there is still inventory left over, slacking off. You can probably go take a nap now, come back and buy one later if you want. A beautiful sight indeed. That kind of luxury — buying a gadget when you want just because the thought occurred to you — is something that many people (including many of us at The Verge) are relearning. And it’s great. Those early days when we had the huge responsibility of telling readers when they had minutes—no, seconds—to win a console felt special, but I think we’re all ready to move on. Back in February, Sony was still struggling to get PS5s onto shelves (the PS4 had sold more in its lifetime at that point after launch). Recent sales figures from the NPD Group report that the PlayStation 5, along with the Xbox Series X, had much higher year-over-year sales in July 2022 than in July 2021, suggesting that the consoles have become very more readily available. US NPD HW – PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series dollar sales saw double-digit percentage growth compared to a year ago. — Mat Piscatella (@MatPiscatella) August 19, 2022 With this PS5 restock lasting all night and well beyond at this point, I’m hoping it’s an encouraging sign that inventory won’t be as dire a problem for the 2022 holiday season as it was last year.
