Sony has launched a store in the UK to allow Brits to buy a PS5 direct from them.
The PlayStation5 is the most sought-after gadget on the planet right now with gamers desperately trying to get their hands on a new console.
Following its November release, Brits have found it nearly impossible to find Sony’s latest gaming console.
But gaming fans have been given hope with news that Playstation Direct has launched in the UK.

PS5 stock at Very
Elsewhere, Very have dropped more PS5 stock today following a release of stock yesterday.
It comes days after Twitter account PS5 Stock UK (@PS5StockAlertUK) hinted that stock could be at Very soon.
The account is powered by Stock Checker UK and reports on the availability of consoles across the UK.
Replying to a question asking for information on the situation at Very, they said: “We don’t usually have Very news however, looking back at Very’s drop history, this week is looking likely.
“Possibly Tuesday.”
PS5 stock did drop at Very on Tuesday, and more has dropped today.
PS5 stock at Argos
The account has also hinted that Argos could be set to release new PS5 stock soon.
The Twitter account reported: “Argos has been getting in shipments of PS5 consoles over the last few days.
“It’s looking like a disc edition only restock again, but this isn’t confirmed.
“More details available soon.”
Update: A very small quantity of Digital Edition consoles have arrived at some Argos stores. Still unclear what day of the above dates this drop will take place. Whichever day they decide to drop, it'll be around 8am as usual.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
