Verizon is set to sell you a PlayStation 5 if you’re a wireless customer. The company announced the new deal on Twitter on Thursday, and says that it will be available starting next month. The PlayStation 5 is currently available for purchase at Verizon stores and online. The deal includes a 500GB PS5 console, two controllers, and a copy of “God of War” for PS4. Customers who are not wireless customers can still purchase the console, but will not receive the game or controllers. This is not the first time that Verizon has offered deals to wireless customers. In March, the company offered free games with purchases of select Samsung phones. ..
As is always the case when there are PS5 consoles for sale, supply through Verizon will be very limited. Don’t expect to jump on the company’s website at any time to simply order one. Instead, you’ll have a very limited time to get one, and we’re not sure when that time will be yet.
Right now, you can see listings for both the $400 PlayStation 5 Digital Edition and the more expensive $500 PS5 disc model on Verizon’s website. However, both models are listed as out of stock.
If you do happen to catch the item in stock on Verizon’s website, you’ll need to have a Verizon wireless account and active service with the company. However, if you manage to find one in a Verizon store (the company hasn’t said which locations will have the PS5 consoles in stock), you won’t need to be an existing customer.
It’s another option available to get a PS5, which is nice. Of course, if you’re not a Verizon customer, you’ll be left out of this one. At least it’s better than Best Buy’s option, which requires you to purchase a separate subscript just to get the ability to order one.
