Update 12/11/2020 11:56pm ET: EB Games has acknowledged an “unprecedented number of visitors” on its website, which is “causing page load issues.” However, the retailer didn’t note that stock has been depleted, so you may want to keep trying.

The original story is below:
EB Games Canada is now selling the PS5 on its website.
The standard PS5 costs $629 CAD and can be ordered here. The disc-less Digital Edition model is priced at $499 and can be ordered here.
The console was originally set to go live at 11am ET, but the website seemed to be down for many — if not everyone — at that time. The website currently has a queue system to cap the amount of people on it at a time, so you may not get on right way. Therefore, it’s unclear whether stock is still available.
In any case, you’ll want to act fast, given how quickly these consoles sell out.
