Buying a PS5 through an EU store from Amazon has so far been easy. However, this source of supply could be denied to you in the future.
You will soon no longer be able to buy the PlayStation 5 in the EU shops of Amazon.
- If you are also looking for the PS5 abroad, the chance of success is significantly higher.
- Amazon France used a region lock for the first time yesterday.
- If other countries follow suit, foreign countries will no longer be a source of supply.
If you include the foreign market in your PS5 search, it is much more likely to get hold of the coveted console. But some foreign dealers have thwarted your plans in the recent past.
At the beginning of the week, for example, a PS5 bundle offered at Media Markt Switzerland could only be shipped within the country. A region lock attracted even more attention at yesterday’s PS5 sale from Amazon France. So far, it has always been possible to order a PS5 from Germany via Amazon’s EU shops. But not this time.

An error message indicated that the item could not be delivered to the selected address. It is quite conceivable that Amazon will soon introduce the region lock in all of its EU shops.
Your chances of buying a PS5 will decrease enormously again. Why Amazon suddenly denied you the purchase is not yet clear.
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).
