GAME OVER?
THE PlayStation 5 will be “almost impossible” to get hold of as demand for the console skyrockets in the coming months, according to some doom-mongering experts.
An analysis carried out by TechRadar suggests that US and UK retailers will in October see a surge in the number of shoppers looking to buy Sony’s next-gen machine.
That’s due to the fact that millions of parents will want to buy their children a PS5 in the weeks leading up to the Christmas holiday. Rising demand will be compounded by the arrival of Black Friday and Cyber Monday in November.
“In two months’ time, it’s going to become much harder when parents wake up to the fact that they need this console to fulfill their child’s Christmas wish list,” TechRadar wrote.
“Even if Sony were to ramp up the supply of PS5 Disc and PS5 Digital consoles, demand will skyrocket right before Black Friday and Cyber Monday.”
