Reportedly, SIE would be considering the hypothesis of postponing or even anticipating the release date of PS5 in some European countries, due to the recent preventive measures put in place. The news would be spread via reddit da The Neen, which would have been contacted by GAME UK and informed that the Japanese giant would like to change the release date of the console in the United Kingdom, France and Germany. Here is what was said on the well-known videogame forum:
GAME in the UK asked me yesterday to walk into the store and pre-pay my PS5 so I can “click and collect” on November 19th. I was there this morning and was told the following:
"Sony told us to stop accepting prepayments, as they could bring about or delay the release of the console due to the blockade of the UK, France and Germany."
