The PS5 was sold yesterday in the online shops of Media Markt and Saturn. So today are your chances of getting hold of a console.
In 2020, the PS5 came out, but Sony’s consoles remain tough to buy. The online shops of Media Markt and Saturn are particularly popular with PlayStation hunters, as there were fairly regularly large sales, especially in the first few months after release.

Save time with the next sales campaign
The last big PS5 sale via Saturn and Media Markt online stores was messy and frustrating. Payment methods were refused or consoles canceled just before they could be purchased. So that you can avoid these problems next time, we give you a few tips.
If you want to buy the console from Media Markt, we recommend using the in-house app. With this, the purchase works better than via the browser. It is best to set up an account in advance to save time. Since Apple Pay was the only payment method that didn’t cause any complications, you should select this as the default.
