Here we go! Walmart now has PS5 restock and Xbox Series X restock available. The Walmart PS5 restock event started at 9 p.m. ET. The retailer also has stock of the Xbox Series X Halo Infinite console.
This evening's drop will last for a full hour with inventory being refreshed every 10 minutes throughout the hour, so don't give up if you can't snag a console on your first try.

Walmart's earlier restock — what happened?
Walmart attempted a restock earlier today (Sept. 23), but a Walmart spokesperson tells Tom's Guide that the site experienced an issue at the time of restock. Shoppers were left with error pages or pages that said the consoles were "sold out." As a result, Walmart abandoned the restock minutes into the event. However, we've now confirmed that the restock has been rescheduled for tonight. (It's underway now). The retailer will have PS5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series X Halo Infinite Limited Edition stock.
This week hasn't been the greatest for PS5 restock retailers in general. Amazon and Sony Direct both held disastrous drops on Tuesday, but this Walmart fiasco has taken things to a whole new level. It was one of the biggest restock fails we've seen all year.
We're recommending shoppers get their console now, as finding the consoles will likely be harder as we get closer to the holidays. (That said, we expect to see plenty of Black Friday PS5 deals on games and accessories).
Walmart restock event — tips and tricks
The first thing you'll want to do is create a Walmart.com account if you don't already have one. Enter your address and credit card info so that in the event you score a console, you can quickly checkout. You'll also want to know the correct landing pages for the PS5 at Walmart. (You'll find the links above).
Once the consoles are available at Walmart you'll have to act lightning fast to secure a console and purchase it. However, it's worth noting that Walmart tends to release inventory every 10 to 15 minutes. So if you don't score a console on your first try, keep trying. Generally speaking, Walmart restocks have lasted from 1 hour to as long as 3 hours. So it pays to stick around and keep trying.
Many have reported that adding the PS5 to a shopping list has helped them score a PS5. To do this, sign into your Walmart account and go to the PS5 product page at Walmart. Click the "add to list" icon underneath the console's image. You'll then be prompted to create a name for your wish list.
The next time Walmart has PS5 restock, you should be able to add the console to your cart via your wish list (instead of going to the product page and waiting for it to show up in stock. Again, your mileage may vary with this tactic, but it's worked in the past.
