Overheating
I paid £90 for FC26 for my son last year when it came out. He hardly played it due to overheating. He’s now wanting to play it again he’s deleted a lot of stuff off his PS5 but it’s still overheating...

Furthermore, why doesn't any other game cause this? Not a single one.
It sounds like you have a bad console, unfortunately. Other games will cause it but there's so many variables it isn't worth trying to find what games cause it. The bottom line you need to accept is that console operating systems are designed in a way that doesn't allow a game to push it past limits it can handle. It's like a fail safe mechanism. So if a specific game is causing it to overheat, it isn't because the game is bad but the console is bad and that game just happens to be a reliable trigger.
