Sony’s PS5 Pro is running low at retailers as demand spikes ahead of the upcoming launch of GTA 6 in November, according to reports from UK outlets. Several stores show products are already sold out or near sold out, with consumers seeking the higher-spec console they expect to be suited for GTA 6.
Metro reports that the extended look at GTA 6 and related media attention contribute to the sudden shortage, noting that only a small number of retailers still have the console available in the UK. The Independent similarly describes broad sell-outs following a promotional period tied to GTA 6, framing the situation as momentum building toward the November release date.
While both outlets agree the PS5 Pro is selling out, they differ slightly in emphasis: The Independent focuses on the general “sell-out everywhere” trend, while Metro highlights the specific UK retail availability and the role of recent GTA 6 coverage in driving demand.
