Sony Playstation's official handle also confirmed that the first phase of pre-orders for PS5 would begin on 17th September, 2020. However, some stores like Walmart and a few others started taking pre-orders earlier than the scheduled time.

As a result, the PS5 pre-orders went haywire, and in less than an hour, the online and offline stores were out of stock.
