Despite being one of the most popular gaming consoles in the market, the Sony PlayStation 5 still remains to be inaccessible for many gamers. Primarily, because the console is always out of stock thanks to the components shortage. However, the PlayStation 5 console does go on sale sometimes, and now, Sony has officially announced its next availability details for the Indian market.

The Sony PlayStation 5 will go on pre-orders from February 22 in the country. The console will be available for pre-booking at 12 noon at all the retail stores like ShopatSC, Amazon, and GamesTheStop.
