The PS5 is not yet available in this country at Saturn and Media Markt, despite some indications. In Austria it is different. You can pre-order the console there.
A notice: This article is no longer maintained. All information about PS5 drops on Amazon can now be found in the linked article.
When Media Markt and Saturn sell the PS5, they usually have a large number of consoles on offer. So your chances of buying the PS5 from the dealers are not bad.
Danger! O2 offers one of the few permanently available solutions to get a PS5. There you get the PS5 in a bundle with a mobile phone tariff.
Here you can find all PS5 tariff bundles at O2 (display).
This is the current situation
5/6/22 11:40 am Additional participating stores have been confirmed for Media Markt’s PS5 order campaign in Austria. You can also pre-order the console in the Linz Passage, Linz Industriezeile, Linz Plus City, Vösendorf, Murpark, Wien Hitzing and Wien Mitte markets. Sometimes even bundled with Horizon Forbidden West.
5/6/22 10:02 am Select Media Markt stores are currently offering the PS5 for pre-order. So far, the markets Haid, Graz, Gerasdorf G3, Vienna Lugner City and Vienna Columbuscenter have been confirmed. If you live in Austria and have a branch nearby, you should definitely stop by there. Maybe you’re lucky and Media Markt will also take part in the campaign.
5/3/22 3:00 p.m Last Thursday, Media Markt and Saturn sold the Sony console for almost two hours, while the quotas at other retailers are usually sold out within a few minutes. The next drop at retailers could be coming soon. Reason for the assumption is a note in the online shops, which reads: “This item will be available again soon”.

Previously, the PS5 was marked “Permanently Out of Stock” when the console was out of stock. Media Markt and Saturn may soon receive a new delivery. But it could also be that canceled consoles are released for sale again.
Although the PS5 was offered en masse, sales were a mess. Payment methods were refused or consoles canceled just before they could be purchased. At Media Markt, purchasing via the in-house app worked better than via the browser. We recommend that you already set up an account. Since Apple Pay was the only payment method that didn’t cause any complications, you should select this as the default. This way you are a few steps ahead of other buyers at the next drop.
A comparable approach has not yet crystallized for the Saturn shop. During the last sale, there were also problems with the Saturn app. As soon as we have found a solution, you will find out here.
Are console bundles returning?
When Media Markt and Saturn receive PS5 supplies again, they will probably often be sold in bundles again. We provide you with an overview of the previous console bundles.

Also keep an eye on other retailers to increase your chances of getting the PS5. Amazon and Medimax are currently very hot candidates when it comes to a drop. But Cyberport and Expert should not be ignored either.
