The PlayStation 5 won't be available in retail stores at launch on November 12, Sony says

On launch day, you won't be able to buy the console at a retail store — only online.When Sony's PlayStation 5 launches on November 12, it won't be available at retail stores. Instead, it will only be available through online storefronts."In the interest of keeping our gamers, retailers, and staff safe amidst COVID-19, today we are confirming that all day-of launch sales will be conducted through the online stores of our retail partners," the company said.

Traditionally, game console launches have inspired excited fans to line up at retailers hours or even days ahead of the launch. Sony specifically advised against that. "Please don't plan on camping out or lining up at your local retailer on launch day in hopes of finding a PS5 console for purchase," the company said.

It's unclear when retailers will begin selling the PlayStation 5 in retail stores, and Sony representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
