Stuck on second loading screen on BFV

I recently got BFV (3 days ago to be exact) and I started it up on a PS4 pro got to play the first part of the campaign (because I don’t have ps plus). And my ps4 overheated twice. And ever since then it’s been stuck on the loading screen where it says press X to start, after I press X it’s just an endless amount of waiting. I’d like to mention I also got a PS5 downloaded it on there and it has the same issue. Please help, I spent $60 on this game and I’ve been very eager to play it!

    I’m new to most of this what do you mean by repairing it? And does it change anything that it’s a PS4 addition. Since live service was cut 4 years ago it doesn’t need an update.

    @GrouchyGrizz PlayStation have a repair feature for if files have become corrupted, so it might be worth looking up a guide to try it in case it helps. The reason I've mentioned updates is in case the most up to date version wasn't automatically installed when you reinstalled on the PS5.

    Okay, I will try to repair the game. I will update you in a bit, thank you.

    Well I watched a few videos and they all said to restore licenses so I did that then it also said to fully shut off your PS5. I’m now just stuck in the loading screen waiting, so none of them worked. Do you have any other ideas?

    @GrouchyGrizz Only other thing I can think to suggest is installing the game to an external drive and seeing if that makes a difference.

    I don’t have an external drive… but I did read somewhere that when you’re installing it you can’t pause it or stop the download, which I did. So I’m going to delete and reinstall the full 100GB instead of the playable 24GB. I’ll keep you updated.

     Hey the game took about 24 hours to download nothing changed sadly. That last try was a last resort. Do y ok recommend refunding the game?
