🧠 The Shortcut and Matt Swider on X send you a restock alert
If you’re looking for the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Collection, I have good news and bad news for you, according to the official PlayStation Direct store. The bad news is that Sony’s official online shopping portal is sold out of the limited-edition console this morning. The 12,300 PS5 Pro consoles went out of stock in just five minutes.
The good news is Walmart will restock PS5 Pro on October 10. It’ll also have the PS5 Slim Digital 30th Anniversary Collection bundle and likely more PS5 DualSense wireless controllers in stock (it sold some of those today but quickly sold out).
You’ll be able to buy the $699 PS5 Pro or the $499 PS5 Slim Digital 30th Anniversary consoles from Walmart without waiting in a PlayStation Direct virtual queue. However, I should note you won’t be able to get the coveted PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary bundle that everyone wants or the PS5 DualSense Edge 30th Anniversary wireless controller.

A handful of subscribers of The Shortcut were able to pre-order the rare PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Edition from PlayStation Direct today by following our 13-step guide and by following Matt Swider on X with notifications on. We’ll have the same system in place for when Walmart opens up PS5 Pro pre-orders.
While PlayStation Direct sold out of the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary bundle, it took over an hour for the PS5 Slim with the same PS1-themed makeover to sell out. So, chances are you’ll be able to buy a PS5 Slim 30th Anniversary console at Walmart in two weeks when Sony’s exclusive pre-order window ends. That’s if you’re OK with having a non-PS5 Pro edition of the limited-edition video game console.
