Those lucky enough to have pre-ordered a PlayStation 5 should have received shipping confirmations today. Major retailers like Amazon, Saturn, and MediaMarkt have begun shipping the first PS5 consoles to pre-order customers. Here’s how you can find out if your console will arrive on time for the release.
When is the PS5 coming? The new Sony console, PlayStation 5, is just before release after much chaos around the pre-orders. The consoles should officially be available to customers on November 19. Due to the Corona pandemic, you can not get the PS5 in retail, but only through online orders and delivery.

What is the status of the deliveries? Major retailers, including Amazon, MediaMarkt, and Saturn, have already started shipping the first consoles. Customers with devices on the way have received an email with a shipping confirmation.
By the way, if you haven’t been able to order a PS5 yet, but want one: Want to buy a PS5? Then you need to be on the lookout with these retailers on November 19
I haven’t received an email, does that mean I won’t get anything tomorrow? That may not mean anything; major retailers like Amazon sometimes have very fast shipping routes. Depending on how close the nearest warehouse is and how complex the delivery routes to you are, it can happen that even very late-shipped consoles arrive at your place during the release day. However, unforeseen issues can certainly lead to delivery delays.
Additionally, you may have received an email, but it ended up in your spam folder. So make sure to check there just in case.
Where can I see where my console currently is? Your email should contain a tracking number from the respective parcel delivery service. With this number, you can check on their website how the shipping is going and where your console is currently located.
On Amazon, you can also check the status of your orders anytime under “My Account”.

How to get in on the third pre-order wave: At Amazon and other online retailers, there will be a strictly limited third wave of orders available on release day, November 19, 2020, at 1:00 PM. At that time, a limited number of consoles can be ordered. However, when they will be shipped and delivered is still unclear.
If further consoles become available at some point, you may also be able to purchase them here.
There are still opportunities to get a PlayStation 5 soon, and your console might just be getting loaded onto a truck and shipped right now. Anyone who still doesn’t have one should practice patience and avoid the numerous scalper offers on eBay and similar platforms. Absurd prices for the PS5 are being demanded there.
