This may also be one of the more secure product restocks to pick up, asWalmart has already blocked botsfrom overloading their systems and swiping up their entire inventory before. Of course, fans will still be racing against each other while logging in and trying to grab a brand new next-gen console before the limited stock is completely picked apart.

The next product rollout coming to Walmart, including both versions of thePS5, as well as theXbox Series X, will be today on January 21st, at 3:20 PM EST. A number of the product watch sites have also posted links that might make picking one of these consoles up a little easier, with some adding the items directly to customers carts, instead of having to go through the regular item page. However, considering how quickly they’ve been selling out, customers will want to act fast if they want to secure any of these systems before the online shelves have been cleared out.
Thanks to the high demand and limited supply of these systems, many of the stock alerts, especially on Twitter have been one of the best resources to go by for these consoles. Considering that even the Switch having limited supplies recently, withGameStop releasing limited bundles alongside PS5and Xbox Series X/S consoles, getting hands on with gaming hardware is especially difficult at the time of this writing. Fortunately, frequent product rollouts like today’s at Walmart should continue to make sure that fans have at least some opportunity to pick up their preferred next-gen console sooner rather than later.
Altogether, waiting out stock alerts and trying to figure out exactly which version of each console fans want is becoming a bit of a stressful hassle. So, for anyone still on the fence about rushing to pick upWalmart’s new stockor still hasn’t considered which version of each console is best for them, this same type of frantic selections of rollout have happened before. The selection of games is still limited as well, so if any customer doesn’t get it now, there will always be opportunities in the future and eventually it’ll be like buying any other product off a shelf.
