Sony recently shared some bad news about its PlayStation 5 console. Even though the PlayStation 5 has technically been on sale since November 2020, it remains extremely difficult to purchase at retail price, and it looks like those problems will potentially continue until 2024. Considering this, anyone that wants a PS5 but has yet to pick one up will want to try their hand whenever a restock is announced.

Retail giant Walmart has confirmed that it will be restocking its PlayStation 5 consoles come Thursday, June 2 at 12pm PT. However, there are some caveats to keep in mind when it comes to the next Walmart PS5 restock. For one, the next Walmart PS5 restock will be online-only, so customers shouldn't expect to walk into their local Walmart stores and walk out with a console in tow. Secondly, the next Walmart restock will be exclusive to Walmart+ members.

For those unfamiliar, Walmart+ is a relatively new subscription service for Walmart. It comes with a variety of perks, one of those being first dibs on console restocks. The Walmart+ free trial will not be enough for one to try their hand at getting a PS5 console in the next restock, however. Those interested will have to make sure they are signed up for a paid version of Walmart+, which costs $98 per year or $12.95 per month. Those who are only interested in the PS5 restock could sign up for the $12.95 per month option and cancel after they've secured their console, but those who shop at Walmart regularly may want to take advantage of the discount they would get by signing up for the $98 per year option.

Regardless, the Walmart PS5 restock will include both versions of the console that Sony has released
