PS5 30th Anniversary Edition restock live build-up: best links to bookmark as PS Direct UK drops stock this morning

Refresh

Listing page updates

It’s worth noting that the three listing pages for the products that go up for ordering today have changed in the last few days.

All three of the PS5 Slim, DualSense, and Portal pages now have a ‘release date’ of “Monday 29th September 2025”. This differs from the PS5 Pro page which just says ‘Currently Unavailable’ and has zero information or description on it, and the DualSense Edge page which has retained the information part, but just has a regular ‘Currently Unavailable’ message on it.

Given the latter is what the three products available today had until recently, might that mean we’re on for DualSense Edge stock at some point too…

This is your two hour warning UK folk!

Only two hours until PlayStation Direct UK drops stock of three of its exquisite 30th Anniversary Collection!

Remember, it’s only on three items…

Another important detail here is that this PS5 30th Anniversary Collection restock is only on three products.

That’s pretty good considering the collection only consists of five, but if you were hoping for more PS5 Pro or DualSense Edge variants, then you are sadly out of luck.

Here are the PS Direct links to now sit on for the three items going up orders today.

PS Plus is key

While the restock begins at 10am today at PS Direct, the absolutely key bit of information is that it will only be open to PlayStation Plus members from the beginning.

PS Plus members will have two full days of access to this restock before non-PS Plus folk too, which is an enormous window. Either PS Direct have a whole load of stock or, as I suspect, anyone without a PS Plus subscription is going to be disappointed…

As a result, I think it’s imperative that you get a PS Plus sub of any kind this morning ahead of the stock drop. It doesn’t have to be a big one and might only cost you a few quid, but the benefit here could be enormous.

You can head straight to the PS Store here to check out if you’re eligible for a free trial or any personalised deals, but the below link to Amazon to snag a bit of PS Store Credit may be the quickest and simplest way to get a cheap PS Plus sub before the restock happens

Important timings!

So, what’s the most important information on this restock today?

First, it’s the timing: PlayStation UK has confirmed that the 30th Anniversary Collection restock will drop at 10am BST today, July 21.

How it started…

Totally out of the blue, PlayStation UK shared news of today’s restock on its social channels last week – a week ago today in fact.

I’d almost given up on seeing stock ever again of this collection so was taken a back – even if it is only on three of the products: the PS5 Slim bundle, DualSense, and PlayStation Portal.

However, there was more info here than just a straight 30th Anniversary Collection stock announcement…

Good morning and welcome to our live coverage of today’s PS5 30th Anniversary Collection restock at PS Direct UK!

What a time to be alive! We haven’t seen a proper restock in ages and ages, and this surprise announcement and stock drop are incredibly welcome news.

The retro-inspired collection has always sold out when appearing at retailers, and demand is sure to be high once again today. I’ll be guiding you through the build up, and providing the best and most important updates when things kick off later this morning in the UK at 10am.

There’s plenty to get into, so let’s get started.
