PS5's December restock is here. Today at 12pm noon, both variants of Sony's elusive next-gen console — the Rs. 49,990 Blu-ray-equipped PS5, and its Rs. 39,990 disc-less counterpart PS5 Digital Edition — will be up for pre-order in India. If you are trying to buy PS5 online, you can do that on Amazon, Croma, Flipkart, Game Loot, Games The Shop, Prepaid Gamer Card, Reliance Digital, Sony Center, and Vijay Sales. The big problem continues to be the minimal PS5 stock that Sony India is able to manage for India, month after month. There was no PS5 restock in November, the big holiday month in India. And the December 6 PlayStation 5 restock is just the tenth time — seventh for PS5 Digital Edition — the flagship console is being made available for pre-order in India, since its launch back in February.

Unfortunately, that is far from the only hassle with buying a PS5 or PS5 Digital Edition in India. Every single time, several online retailers have shown themselves to be unable to handle the load. Croma, Games The Shop, and Prepaid Gamer Card are routine offenders — even Amazon has had trouble once or twice. Additionally, Croma, Flipkart and Reliance Digital are also known for cancelling PlayStation 5 pre-orders due to their own technical challenges. Restrictions on deliveries might have eased but Sony Center website ShopAtSC continues with that boilerplate: “We intend to deliver your allocated stocks around 15th December 2021 and onwards — however please expect a delay in our delivery services which might get impacted due to regulations imposed by lockdown/ curfew in your locations.”

While the rest of the stores — Amazon, Croma, Flipkart, Game Loot, Games The Shop, Prepaid Gamer Card, Reliance Digital, and Vijay Sales — hasn't given us shipping dates, expect them to be in line with Sony Center's estimates. In fact, it might even be earlier than December 15. For the June, July, August and October PlayStation 5 restocks, several customers reported on groups and forums that their PS5 pre-orders were shipped prior to the announced shipping date.
