It's time to buy the most sought-after console on the market: Sony's PS 5. Walmart has PS5 consoles again coming up for Walmart Plus subscribers. The members-only drop is scheduled for tomorrow, April 19th, at 12PM, and it will include both the disc-based PS5 for $499 and the PS5 Digital Edition for $399. You will need a paid Walmart Plus account to get a crack at either one, and while the premium subscription costs $98 annually, you can subscribe for just one month for $122.95 to try your hand at a PS5.

We've been through this at Walmart many times before, and while nobody likes paying extra for access to purchase a console, the retail giant is one of the more reliable stores selling non-bundled consoles. Both versions of the PS5 are available for regular prices during the scheduled restock.

You can play both digital and physical games on the PS4 and PS5.

The PS5 Digital Edition costs more than $400. The PS5 is $100 more expensive and does not include a disc drive.

There are a couple of things you can do to be successful tomorrow. First, make sure your Walmart Plus account is sorted and that the billing and shipping addresses you plan to use for the purchase are saved. Walmart's automated bot protection may temporarily lock you out and slow your progress, so be prepared to refresh the page right at the hour. Click the button to join the online queue.

You can try to secure a console on a desktop browser and Walmart mobile app at the same time to increase your chances. The few who get through the queue should be able to check out in 10 minutes. Walmart usually sells more inventory every 10 minutes or so, so be persistent and only give up when the listings say sold out.

Many of you will be able to get a console tomorrow. You can get the latest savings on gaming and gadgets straight to your inbox if you subscribe to our newsletter.
