The next-generation console can be purchased through the Argos website at the launch price of £449.99 for the standard model and £359.99 for the digital edition.

However you’ll have to move fast – GAME, Smyths, and Amazon sold out of their initial PS5 stock within hours. Pre-orders for Sony’s new console began sporadically on 17th September with retailers going live at different times, with Argos one of the last to start accepting orders.

Update: It looks like Argos has also now sold out of the PS5 pre-orders.

The Black Friday-esque scramble for the new console began following the PS5 Spotlight event in which Sony finally revealed the price and release date of the Playstation 5, as well as a look at several upcoming PS5 games such as Hogwarts Legacy and God of War: Ragnarok. There were surely many relieved fans when the PS5 was confirmed to match the Xbox Series X price of £449 – though many were baffled that the UK had to wait a week longer than much of the world for a 19th November launch.

Should you be unlucky enough to miss out on a PS5, you may want to consider buying a PS4, which is still an impressive piece of hardware and boasts a great library of exclusive games – and will now be cheaper than ever:
