As I’m sure you understood, the Playstation 5 is part of a generation of consoles that are sold out right away. Remember, when Sony’s last console was released, it was November 2020 and the coronavirus pandemic was at its peak, crippling economies around the world. Southeast Asia, the leading producer of semiconductor metals used in the manufacture of smart cards (i.e. processors and graphics processors for consoles and PCs), has been hit hard, slowing production of consoles, graphics cards and even cars around the world. A factor that is still felt today in the high-tech market and in particular that of the latest generation gaming consoles.

In the case of Playstations 5 and graphics processors in general, the situation should not return to normal before 2024. A prediction by Pat Gelsinger, Intel’s President and CEO, who confirmed in an interview with CNBC that microchip production should return to its full potential by the end of 2023. A precise expertise, but a bad omen for console and PC gamers who expected to be able to enjoy a stable situation until the end of 2023 to the end of 2022.

The PS5 still suffers from many stock shortages and while this article is not infallible, it still aims to give you the weapons to try and buy Sony’s console as quickly as possible and without any hassles.
