Next Target PS5 restock may be this week. The latest PS5 restocking rumor comes from YouTuber and gaming console inventory tracker Jake Randall, who initially said the restocking was last week, but also said it could be delayed until this week. given Target's tendency to restock early in the morning. I think it's safe to say that the Target PS5 restock will most likely take place on Thursday, July 8 (or, as usual, it could be delayed until next week).
Randall has called multiple Target restocks in advance, proving that his sources at the retailer are very reliable; nothing is guaranteed in the PS5 restocking game, but based on past evidence, Randall's information is likely to be at least partially correct. Target's restocking tends to take place around 7 a.m. to 8 a.m. EST, which means gamers should get up early Thursday morning to shine.
In a recent tweet, Randall explained that Target stores nationwide have continued to increase their inventory over the past week. Several stores have reportedly received additional units in the last couple of days. On average, stores across the country now have between 6 and 12 PS5 units. While this may not sound like a significant amount, it is actually four times the amount each store had last week.
For this reason, Randall believes that the next restocking of Target PS5s will likely take place on Thursday (July 8) between 7:00 AM and 8:00 AM EST. Thursday seems likely based on past trends.
As noted above, Jake Randall has proven to be a reliable source of PS5 restocking information. However, nothing should be taken as fact unless it comes directly from the retailer, and since Target is nearly three weeks removed from its last PS5 drop, it seems likely that it will restock in the next few days, but nothing is confirmed unless it comes from Target itself.
If you are still trying to secure a PS5, be sure to bookmark the PS5 Restocking Hub. This guide contains the latest restocking information, rumors, and leaks. While this won't guarantee that you'll be able to get your hands on a PS5, it will make the seemingly impossible task of acquiring Sony's popular gaming console a little easier.
First, make sure you have an account set up with your payment and address details saved. This is an essential step if you want to secure your PS5 when it is restocked. Stocking your basket is only half the battle, and you don't want your console to sell out while you are entering your details. Make sure everything is saved so you can check out in seconds.
Target is known for releasing inventory in waves, usually releasing the regular PS5 first, followed by a restock of the PS5 digital version. Therefore, even if the PS5 is already sold out at the retailer, it is worth sparing the time to go after the second wave.
Jake Randall also recommends using alternative payment methods such as PayPal, Apple Pay, and RedCard if possible. The advantage of these is that using another payment portal avoids Target's own servers, which have collapsed under the burden of trying to secure the order confirmation emails that thousands of people have coveted in the past.
Target also has an app that can be used to secure PS5. A good trick is to try to check out the restock on both your desktop and mobile device. Once you are able to add the PS5 to your cart on one, we recommend switching to the other to complete the checkout process. As long as you are logged in, the contents of your cart will be recorded.
Finally, during checkout, if your local store is sold out, you may edit your location to select a store that has PS5 in stock. If you encounter this issue, clear your browser cookies and try again.
