Very hot days, the ones we have just passed, for the pre-order of the next generation consoles. PS5 sold out in minutes all over the world, e Xbox Series X|S I’m not be less.
However, the organizational machine that will make sure that everything goes right is only really getting into motion during these hours, and it doesn’t always bring good news with it.
The English shop ShopTo has indeed begun to contact how many have pre-pre-ordered, through a special offer similar to those of chains such as GameStop in Italy, a PS5.
In doing so, he revealed that he had received a communication from Sony regarding the number of consoles that will be provided on day one by the platform owner – a fate that, given the size of the retailer, should also befall other chains around the world. .
“We have received details of allocations from Sony and, unfortunately, we are sorry to inform you that we will not be able to execute your pre-order at the launch date “, reads an email received to Tom Ivan di VCG.
“We’d like to know if you’d be happy if we hijack your pre-order on a digital console; if they are available and you have to be in the queue, you will have priority “, explains the communication again.
An event that we do not consider too plausible, given the very small numbers that would have been reserved for PS5 Digital Edition in stores.
ShopTo has recommended its customers to do not cancel your reservation because others may or may not take their console and thus skip a place in the ranking that will lead to PS5.
In conclusion, the situation seems serious enough: PlayStation 5 at present seems very far from being easily available and this should concern all the territories involved since the launch of the platform in November – who before (United States and Japan, among others, on 12) and who after (Europe and rest of the world on 19).
Sony she had already had to apologize for i massive misunderstandings of the opening of pre-orders, which took place at very short notice after the last event.
Following the apology, additional allocations were also guaranteed in Italy, which involved several generalist chains.
Although it is now almost impossible to find for day one, you can continue to keep an eye on it PS5 page on Amazon for when it becomes available again
