UPDATE: Oct. 11,alone in an island sex video 2024, 10:25 a.m. EDT Preorders for the PlayStation 5 Slim Digital Edition 30th Anniversary Limited Edition sold out quickly at all major retailers on Thursday, Oct. 10 — even Walmart, despite its paywall. Scalpers are now flipping it on eBayfor hundreds of dollars over retail. Our original story follows.
The second wave of preorders for the PlayStation 5 Slim Digital Edition 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle go live across major retailers today (Thursday, Oct. 10). The drop comes two weeks after Sony initially launched the bundle in its PlayStation Direct storefront, where it promptly sold out.
Preorders were expected to begin at 10 a.m. ET, though Target's listing briefly went live overnight. If availability is a top-of-mind concern, consider signing up for Walmart+.

Demand will still be reasonably high, but that paywall should thin the crowds a bit (and hypothetically deter scalpers). The listing doesn't specify whether preorders will ever open to non-members.

Walmart+ costs $12.95/month or $98/year and unlocks early access to certain drops and savings events at the big-box store, including a Holiday Deals event it's hosting this week. (Live through Sunday, Oct. 13, the sale competed with Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days event and serves as Walmart's holiday shopping season kickoff.) That's on top of additional perks like free shipping, fuel discounts, travel savings, and streaming freebies.
If you want to try your luck elsewhere, the PS5 Slim Anniversary Edition bundle will also be up for grabs at Amazon and Best Buy today.
Released in honor of PlayStation's 30th birthday, the bundle features a disc drive-free PS5 Slim console in a retro gray finish that harkens back to Sony's very first console. It comes with a matching DualSense controller, a cover for a disc drive (sold separately), a vertical stand, and several collectibles, and it'll set you back $499.99.
That's the same price as a standard PS5 Slim console with a disc drive (though Walmart currently has it on sale for $449 as part of this week's Holiday Deals event). It's also $200 less than a PlayStation Pro, Sony's upcoming mid-gen system. That console sold out at PS Direct, too, but its retailer preorders are set to go live today alongside the PS5 Slim 30th Anniversary bundle.
