PS5 restock: Sony Direct virtual queue was only for people with email invites

Sadly, the Sony Direct virtual queue was rather limited today.Update: The PS5 restock at Costco beat Best Buy and Walmart to offering consoles this week for Thursday, June 24, while the Sony Direct PS5 restock on June 23 was limited to people with an email invite and didn't open up to everyone else left waiting for the scraps of PS5 stock. And it's definitely next since the GameStop Xbox Series X restock doesn't include PS5 this time around (GameStop had it last week).Usually, we say: don't despair if you didn't get an email invite from Sony – the Sony Direct virtual queue has previously always opened up to the general public today at 5pm EDT. We got an overnight Amazon PS5 restock at 12am EDT on Wednesday, June 23 – and Matt Swider sent out an alert if you were following him on Twitter, though with Amazon being so popular at the close of Prime Day 2021 deals it was a difficult one.We thought there'd be a chance at redemption with the Sony Direct virtual queue for everyone at the usual time of 5pm EDT.
