Sony's PS5 is one of the hottest commodities on the market today. Any gaming / electronics stores or super-warehouses that had stock in the next-gen console have apparently sold out during the first pre-order blitz with no new stock to arrive until release day, November 12th. You could pay double the cost by heading to a bidding site like eBay if you want to reward the scalpers; you do you. Otherwise, there are just no legitimate PS5s to be found out there ... except for the ones that Sony apparently set aside for The King.

The Burger King, that is. Sony and the fast-food chain are teaming up for a contest that will give lucky winners their very own PS5. You can check out all the details as to how to get your hands on one (a PS5 we mean, though you can also get your hands on a tasty burger while you're at it) by heading over to the PlayStation blog post. The contest will run from today through November 22nd, so even if you are out of luck on release day, you might be a lucky BK PS5 winner after all.

Burger King and PlayStation have teamed up to help promote the launch of the PlayStation 5. Head on into your nearest Burger King restaurant today for your chance to win. Promotion begins Thursday, October 15th.

Starting today, Burger King guests who purchase the 2 for $5 deal in the US will have a chance at winning a PS5 console.* Here’s how it works:
