Thanks for the additional information!
Can we also verify if the following changes this at all?
- Make sure you have the latest software update.
- Troubleshoot your connection to EA games
- Unplug any devices attached to the USB slot.
- Entering Safe Mode and Rebuild your PS database
If this keeps up when starting a game let us know the following,
- EA ID (PSN ID/Gamertag):
- Do you get an error codes or error messages?
- If possible, share a Screenshot or Clip of any errors...
Cheers!
I will check out the software update this evening, but im pretty sure its up to date as it automatically does this. I haven't had any issues connecting to the servers.

- Do you get an error codes or error messages? The only error message that pops up is a temperature warning from the actual PS5 console saying its too hot and to wait for it to cool down. If I ignore it, the system eventually just beeps and then shuts itself off shortly after the pop up. I have not gotten any errors related to the actual game itself. I want to reiterate that this only happens when playing an actual game. Launching the game, navigating menus, and even simming only in Dynasty mode does not cause this to happen. I have also played my other games to make sure its not just a PS5 issue and they all play fine as normal with no overheating.
- If possible, share a Screenshot or Clip of any errors... See above.
