The beginning of the video shows a woman with long braids shouting at another woman in a black hoodie, "What the f**k are you gonna do?"
The woman in long braids then removes her jacket and her face mask as she continues to exchange heated words with the other customer.
At one point a man in a motorized scooter and a woman in a red mask attempt to deescalate the situation but the woman in the braids continue to shout.
The two continue to shout at each other while other customers wait in a queue with their shopping trolleys.
Then the woman wearing the black hoodie runs and begins to attack the other woman.
Other Walmart shoppers move out of their way as they push and drag each other across the store.
The pair fistfight across the electronic section of the store until the woman in braids is knocked out after she was stomped in the face.
Cops responded to the scene but the women left the store before officers arrived — apparently without a PS5, according to .
This is the second incident in a week where gaming enthusiasts have got into a brawl over the coveted console.
On Thursday a mother punched a police officer while holding her four-month-old baby, cops said.
The footage was filmed inside a Florida Walmart, where tensions broke out when the woman was told Sony PlayStation 5 consoles had sold out.
Valeria Aguilar and her family had reportedly waited over eight hours in line to purchase a Sony console - one of the most sought-after items of the Christmas season.
Video obtained by shows police officer Cristina Pacheco trying to defuse a tense conversation between Aguilar's brother-in-law, Juan Ramírez, and store employees.
A police incident report says he had “became belligerent with Walmart employees when they announced that only five PS5 consoles [were] left to be purchased.”
It comes after Sony confirmed the PlayStation 5 was their biggest ever launch - promising more stock to desperate shoppers.
