A leading tipster has said more PlayStation 5 consoles will be on sale later this week after a drop at John Lewis.
March continues to be a busy month for PlayStation 5 restocks, as the likes of Currys, Very and AO are all expected to put Sony’s console on sale.
“Another week of drops, expecting John Lewis, AO and Very to release this week. Currys are currently processing huge PS5 drop,” reads a PS5 UK Stock- Instant Updates post.
The restocks began with a John Lewis drop earlier on Tuesday, March 9. The sought-after consoles were snapped up pretty quickly but it is rumoured that more stock will drop throughout the week due to cancellations.
The biggest drop is, however, expected to take place at Currys, where customers can sign up for priority passes.
“Currys is taking registration for PS5 priority passes. They’re randomly selecting customers who will get a reservation for a PS5 in-store. Likely this will be heavily botted, but worth a shot.”
If you want to get a PS5 Priority Pass, then you’ll need to visit the Currys website and sign up for a chance to buy a PS5.
Currys will select random entrants and send a Priority Pass to them, complete with a PS5 buying code. These codes will be valid for 72-hours only.

Elsewhere, AO and Very will also restock the PlayStation 5 this week, although sadly the same can’t be said for Argos.
“Just to clear this up, Argos isn’t releasing stock this week so stop staying up – these are rumours. Still waiting on AO and Very to release stock. After which we’ll be waiting for the next shipment near end of March.”
There have also been reports of customers being sent scam text messages after ordering a console.
