Don’t forget your disc drive…

If you do manage to get your hands on the PS5 Slim 30th Anniversary bundle today, then you shouldn’t forget to pick up the compatible disc drive accessory.

A disc drive is not included out of the box, so it’s worth getting if you have lots of physical games that you want to play.

Luckily the accessory is readily available right now at a couple retailers, but there’s no guarantee that stock will persist for long. You can browse a range of offers below.

The PS5 Pro is still readily available

If you haven’t managed to get your hands on the 30th Anniversary gear quite yet but still want some upcoming PlayStation goodness, then it’s worth bearing in mind that the PS5 Pro is still up for pre-order at a wide range of retailers.

With brand new features like PSSR and support already confirmed for a wide range of games, it looks like a formidable option if you want to push your gaming performance to the max.

But the DualSense is a also kind of a big deal

I love the 30th Anniversary DualSense controller and think it’s a superb addition to the whole 30th Anniversary Collection – something shared by many other fans given how quickly it sold out in the US when it was available and how quickly it goes in the UK too whenever stock pops up.

Its relatively low price (compared to the other items in the collection) as well as its potential for immediate integration into a setup (everyone always wants a bigger collection of DualSenses, right?) means it’s particularly attractive to many fans so we’d get in position early for the restock of this item too.

The PS5 Slim is the big attraction

The PS5 Slim 30th Anniversary Digital Edition console is a huge attraction in this restock and is likely to sell out extremely quickly once again.

It features that great retro aesthetic and comes with a disc drive cover for if you want to add a disc drive to it down the line – it comes as a digital-only by default.

Below is the main PS Direct link for the PS5 Slim 30th Anniversary console as well as a bunch of other retailer inks you can use to check availability – just in case.

Why we’re here and what we know

This PS5 Slim 30th Anniversary restock has only recently come to light with both listing pages for the PS5 Slim bundle and the PS5 DualSense changing in the past few days to include a ‘check back’ note.

While we had almost totally given up on any more proper restocks in the US for any of the 30th Anniversary Collection, today seems like we’re going to get another bite at the cherry. Both pages now display the note “Please check back on October 29th at 9 AM PDT” which is our clearest indicator of a restock happening in just a matter of hours!

As mentioned at the top of our article here, we aren’t expecting any other 30th Anniversary items to get stock drops today but we’d keep those links to hand just in case. I’d recommend doing the same if you’re in the UK too as sometimes stock drops can be replicated.
