Shortly after the PS5 Showcase Event, Sony let the fans know ahead of time that the console will be available for pre-order on the 17th of September. However, retailers jumped the proverbial gun and opened up shop with the PS5 pre-orders.
Gaming community reacts to Sony’s apology regarding the PS5 pre-order chaos
All of this has led to Sony issuing an apology regarding the PS5’s chaotic pre-orders, and overall, it has been received quite well by the gaming community.
Notable gaming journalist and personality Alanah Pearce also pointed out how rare this kind of statement is.
A lot of fans appreciated Sony’s candidness and them admitting that the PS5 pre-orders, are indeed, quite the mess.
While largely fan reaction was positive, a lot of people felt that their patience was not rewarded and were quite angry with Sony.
The presence of bots and scalpers has quite nearly ruined the PS5 pre-orders for most of the audience, and fans are incredibly vocal regarding that.
Sony’s apology goes a long way in reassuring the fans, and this kind of clear communication is only a sign of good things to come in the future from Sony.
