Heads up, folks, because we've got yet another PlayStation 5 restock incoming. It's a bit more tricky than the usual restocks we see, but this may very well be your last chance to get one before the holidays, so it's definitely worth a try.

Here's the lowdown: Best Buy is restocking the coveted console on Dec. 14 in limited quantities, but the catch is that it's an in-app-only event. At 12 p.m. ET, the retailer will be putting fresh PS5 units up for grabs — all you have to do is log in to the app and try your luck by adding one to your cart. Download the app(opens in a new tab) as soon as you can to make sure you're primed and ready for the drop.

So yeah, not too complicated, but we suspect some shoppers will make the mistake of trying to snag a PlayStation 5 on Best Buy's website instead of the app, and we wanted to make sure that you didn't end up being one of those people. We would absolutely hate to see you miss your shot on this one. Anyway, good luck! We can feel it in our bones that this will finally be the time you get one (maybe).
