Walmart has notified shoppers of its next PS5 restock this morning, dropping a note on the listing page for the Horizon Forbidden West bundle. The $549 package will hit the shelves at 3pm ET, and the best part is you don't need to be a Walmart Plus member to get in the game.
We've previously seen Walmart hiding its PS5 restocks behind its membership paywalls, allowing only full subscribers access to its stock drops over the last few months. However, after a quieter period - and a wave of stock earlier this week - it seems the retailer has dropped this prerequisite (for today at least). We'd still recommend signing into your Walmart account so that you can save payment and shipping information before this afternoon, to ensure you've got the best chance possible when this stock does light up the shelves.
PS5 stock is actually becoming a little easier to scout these days. Sony's own drops have been coming in thick and fast - and the brand's own listing for the same PS5 bundle doesn't appear to be completely out of action right now. If you're after a chance at a console before 3pm ET, then, we'd recommend signing into your PlayStation account and checking out Sony Direct. Playing the long game? Amazon is also offering email invites, with a chance to be selected for the retailer's next drop.
In the meantime, we're getting you prepped for today's Walmart PS5 restock with all the links you'll need when the time comes and our top tips for battle.
