PS5 Crashing During Save the World Missions – Anyone Else Experienced This?

-

I’ve been having this frustrating issue where my PS5 turns off whenever I’m playing Save the World. It doesn’t matter what mission I’m on; after a few minutes, the console just powers off. I can’t even turn it back on without unplugging it from the wall. Is this happening to anyone else with their PS5? I haven’t found anyone else talking about this problem.

I had a similar problem, but it only happened during longer endurance missions. Ended up buying a new PS5 because of it!

For me, it kicks me out after 15 minutes on any mission. I can’t just buy a new console right now as mine is less than a year old. It just happened again while I was playing Repair the Shelter! Just awful since I really love playing Save the World.

I experienced the same shutdown, but mine only happens after about an hour and a half of gameplay. If the issue persists, it might be worth taking it to a repair shop for a fix.

Wow, mine shuts down way quicker! Are you really suggesting I take it to a lab to get it fixed?

This sounds like a potential overheating issue. Make sure your PS5’s vents aren’t clogged and that there’s proper airflow around it.

I thought of that too, but mine is in an open area and doesn’t feel hot at all, at least not any more than usual.
