Prime Day is Amazon's biggest sale of the year, rivaling Black Friday at this point, and the company is already drumming up hype for Prime Day 2021 with a heavy slate of early Prime Day deals. But while there will undoubtedly be plenty of game deals and gaming accessories on sale, consoles are a big question mark this year, especially the PlayStation 5. Discounts are out of the question, of course, but many gamers are still trying to get their hands on the PS5 at all, leaving one question looming over this year's big sale: Will Amazon restock the PS5 on Prime Day?

Anyone who's been trying to buy a PS5 over the past seven months is all too familiar with the endlessly frustrating restock situation. Most retailers aren't selling them in brick-and-mortar stores at all, and online restocks disappear seemingly in a matter of seconds. PS5 restocks are sporadic and aren't usually announced ahead of time, and an entire Twitter culture has sprung up around the demand for the console, with accounts tracking restocks in real time. But compared to its competitors, Amazon has been largely absent from the PS5 restock conversation, as the console has only popped up there a handful of times since launch. So it's no surprise people may be wondering whether Amazon is gearing up for a big PS5 restock on Prime Day.

Will there be a PS5 restock on Prime Day?

Unfortunately, no PS5 restock has been confirmed for Amazon Prime Day. In fact, Amazon hasn't commented on the PS5 stock situation at all, and the few restocks that have happened weren't announced by Amazon ahead of time. The listings for the PS5 and PS5 Digital have a message that reads, "Current unavailable. We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock."
