Game Breaking Bug - PS5

I have been playing DA:V on PS5 for around 45 hours so far but this bug started when I first launched the game.  I was unable to get through character creation and it crashed multiple times. At this time I had my EA account connected.  I then took the following steps:

Powered off the PS5

Unplugged the AC cord

Connected the AC cord

Booted the PS5 into Safe Mode

Cleared the cache

Restarted the console

Started the game

It got a little farther and crashed

It got a little farther and into the game for about an hour and crashed

Power cycled the PS5

It continued to crash and was stating that there was a PS5 system software error

I ensured my PS5 was up to date with the latest system software and it was (and always is since I have auto updates enabled)
