How to order a PS5 on the official website?
PS5 registration is open now on PlayStation Direct for customers who haven’t had the chance to get their hands on a console yet. Just go to the registration page with your PlayStation Network ID and email address.
It’s important to note that signing up doesn’t guarantee you’ll get a PS5. Indeed, Sony seems select consumers at random. This method therefore increases your chances of obtaining the console, while preventing stocks from being depleted in a few moments because of scalpers.

As a reminder, Sony is unable to meet the ever-increasing consumer demand. The manufacturer even recently went so far as increase the production of PS4 in the absence of being able to manufacture the new generation. It could therefore be that the stocks offered directly by Sony are all as limited as those of other retailers.
