The PlayStation 5 Pro is up for grabs again. Hope you started saving for it yesterday.
Priced at $699.99, preorders for Sony's upcoming mid-gen console are now open at major retailers as of 10 a.m. ET on Thursday, Oct. 10. That includes Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target, and Walmart.
This marks the PS5 Pro's second wave of preorders, arriving two weeks after its initial launch in the PlayStation Direct storefront; at the time of writing, it's back in stock there after selling out at first. (A PlayStation Network account is required.) All retailers are limiting shoppers to one console per order except Target, which allows two per order.

Sony previously released two limited-edition console bundles commemorating the PlayStation's 30th anniversary alongside the PS5 Pro, and both of them are long gone.
One was a $999.99 PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle featuring a PS5 Pro decked out in the '90s gray aesthetic of the very first PlayStation. It came with matching DualSense and DualSense Edge controllers, a DualSense charging station, a cover for a disc drive (sold separately), a vertical stand, and a handful of collectibles. Limited to 12,300 individually numbered units, it sold out "in seconds" when preorders went live at PS Direct on Sept. 26, per our sister site IGN. Scalpers are now reselling it on eBay for thousands of dollars.
The other was a $499.99 PS5 Slim Digital Edition 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle that omitted the DualSense Edge and charging station. It made its way to retailers on Oct. 10 following its first preorder drop on PS Direct in late September, and it sold out quickly on both occasions. It's also made its way to eBay at wildly inflated prices.

The announcement followed months of speculation and leaks, including one that seemed to come from inside the house.

With a larger GPU than the original PS5, ray tracing upgrades, and new custom hardware for AI-powered upscaling, Cerny said the PS5 Pro is the "most powerful console we've ever built." It also brings support for WiFi 7, 8K gaming, and a new "Pro" version of the PS5's Game Boost feature that can upgrade the performance of over 8,500 backward-compatible PS4 titles. It has 2TB of storage, or double the capacity of the original PS5 (which is now nearly four years old).
Notably, the PS5 Pro does not come with a disc drive: You have to purchase it separately for $79.99. (IGN reports that it's been selling out consistently across major retailers ever since the PS5 Pro was announced.) A vertical stand that's compatible with the console is also available for $29.99.
Next-gen upgraders who balk at the price of the PS5 Pro and its add-ons might consider purchasing a used system at a discounted price: Certified refurbished PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition consoles are newly available PS Direct for $399.99 and $349.99, respectively, or $100 less than their new counterparts.
The PS5 Pro marks the fifth iteration of Sony's current flagship console (not counting any bundles), which had a much sloppier launch and faced years of pandemic-related supply issues after the fact. Along with the standard PS5, it joins the PS5 Digital Edition, the PS5 Slim, and the PS5 Slim Digital Edition.
